Chroming front and rear badges?

Recommended Posts

Just wondering if anyone has gone down this route to get shiny new (looking) VW emblems on the front grill and rear of the car.

 

I painted mine in gloss black and would like to get them to original standard again. Has anyone done this themselves or know of a company that can do it? and a rough idea of cost?

 

Cheers.

The process that they were originally done with is called metallisation. I did contact a couple of companies about doing it but they were either astronomically expensive or wouldn't do it for small batches.

 

In the end I did it myself with a vinyl chrome wrap. It isn't perfect but is a tonne better than it was. Here's a link to the thread.
