Someone stole my T badge :<

[LiCkWiD]

That's right! Overnight, some little skank stole my T from the 20VT bit. I can only imagine what sick, sadistic and twisted rituals are taking place with my poor badge.

Anyway.. it looks poo. In one fell swoop, they've removed my turbocharger (to the casual badge observer) and that won't stand!!!!

Do I debadge the load, and go for the stealthy look or attempt to replace the little fella (Anyone suggest any good sites for OEM look lettering?)

Opinions/advice/free money always welcome!

Debadge it, Look much better and makes the boot lid more wider!

I think you should report this to the police and media so they can start a full on search for the little fella

I've just debadged the 20 VT letters as the adhesive was getting cacky. Still got the Cupra badge on the other side under SEAT and it looks tidier IMO. Break out the cotton thread and whip the others off.

Some thieving pikee scumbag nicked my T from the TDi too !!!!

Why do these little have to do it ? Do they really think a T badge will inprove the appearance of their nova ??

Good news is I got a new set on Ebay for about £5 including postage.

Heya kids.

Debadged.. looks awesome. Good call, those who said go for it

I've cleaned the aftermarks up nicely with a dash of Zippo lighter fluid. Cut through the sticky residue. Followed it up with a wash and wax. Decided to leave "LEON" on though... Just to state the obvious

Pab's guide.. spot-on. Awesome stuff.

Ta all.
