Agreed, I'm totally prepared to do the work. The car is garage kept and the paint is in pretty good shape to start with so I feel good about taking it on as a novice.

That job is the suckiest one in all of car world, imo. I did it like 16 months ago. Took two full days and was so annoying. I'd rather install another clutch than do that again (I think).

It came out well enough, but jeez what a hassle. Best of luck.

You might want to get a smaller size backing plate and pads for your machine?For getting in the tighter areas and so forth. If you don't have one, maybe you do.

The SET button actually hooked up?
I picked up that side of buttons off eBay for like 20 bucks (that side had the blank filler panel) I wired the tire pressure set button to my garage door opener cause I wanted the button discrete if say someone broke in the car in the drive way.

So yes and no the button is hooked up, lol.

Got the rest of the emblems I ordered in. Still need to find a front one that has no chrome in it. And would prefer a rear 'GTI' one that was all black, not black and red.

Once winter is done, and I don't need to worry about snow and salt ruining a fresh wrap, I'm going to get my GTI wrapped in Nardo Grey. Have a professional local who does color change wraps on small cars for $1k.

Nardo Grey GTI with black wheels, emblems, and some hits of red?

Where did you pick up your black front and rear VW emblems?
