Hi mate, never done it myself but apparently it`s easy to un-bolt once you remove the tailgate trim: clicky

cheers loooks cool! i have a black car so should look cool!

matfennell · 13-03-2010, 23:44

ive done it mate

just dont do it in the dark when ya really need it sorting becuase its freezing, getting late and about to rain lol

will post a pic within next couple of days mate

its fairly simple tbh and looks good - need to re do mine some point.

All i would say is give yaself good time and be patient with some of the bolts - they are big and some parts are fiddly

but if ya need any help just let me know

rod the sod · 14-03-2010, 08:07

cheers for that! think i am going to get it done this week! will post some pics when done! have you gone for gloss or matt black??

*CJRamze* · 14-03-2010, 08:27

Matt Black,
Its something I've wanted to do for ages but I'm just not confident enough taking my car apart

Shit myself on the rolling road day trying to take the front grill off to get to the towing eye, Let alone removing boot trim!

rod the sod · 14-03-2010, 08:47

i kno wat you mean about taking things apart but once you have done one thing you cant really go wrong! just take your time and remember where all the bolts and screws go back! i tihnk i am going to attempt mine this week!
so are you keeping your cupra now

*CJRamze* · 14-03-2010, 08:51

I'm always worried I'll lose everything.
I'm keeping it until someone makes me an offer really, I'm not pushing hard with the sale, Its not on pistonheads etc

However if someone on here offers or someone on another club forum offers £8500 I wont be able to resist.

*Gooner_Mike* · 14-03-2010, 08:55

Its really easy if you follow the trim removal guide posted above. Its then obvious what bolts need removing that hold the badge in.

I painted mine matt black. Take your time with cleaning and preppng the badge thoroughly. Bets to do it over the course of a weekend to allow the primer and paint to dry properly.

*RachIbiza* · 18-03-2010, 21:04

hey we've just done mine, cant wait for it to go back in, just waiting for it to dry out! i got JKM to remove the rear trim when i went there to get my exhaust done haha, so a little while ago, then we took the badge out easily to do the rest.
