Ferris666 10 Posted September 27, 2016 Hello everyone, been a member for a while but never posted anything. I'm testing the water out there to see if people would be interested in rear Vw badges, part no.357 853 601? As we all know they've been discontinued and good condition chrome ones are as hard to find as rocking horse sh#¥ unless I've been looking in the wrong places. I'm looking into getting both parts of the badge re produced as I think chrome spray is crap!!!! I don't have any ideas on price at the moment but as soon as I do I'll put them up. Please give me your feedback please guys 'n' girls. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a stash of about 6 brand new ones... they sell for about £30 each these days..... ive tried the chrome spray in the past and that's rubbish someone on here had good results recently with chrome wrap.

Ferris666 10 Posted September 27, 2016 I'm just waiting for a quote and we'll go from there. Got a feeling they'll probably end up more than £30 but we'll wait and see. Don't suppose you fancy parting with one of your 6 shiny new ones??? No worries if not. Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have a search here but I think the golf mk3 badge is the same apart from it slopes at a different angle to the rear valance... These are still available.

Ferris666 10 Posted September 27, 2016 Ok no worries, cheers for the info. Might see if I can get it chrome wrapped whilst waiting to hear about reproductions. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
