    That screw driver tip to pop it out the top was so handy. Thanks very much

    IDK if I'm the only one NOT a fan of these kinda mod. I found original emblem beautiful and darken version makes the whole car looks old. Also I don't like "rear wiper deleted", "GTI logo deleted" those kind of mod either.. But that just my opinion. Great tutorial for those who interested.

    So on my rabbit i did a red inlay from klii motorwerks. And i bought the rear emblem for a mk7 to overlay it. It looks nice.

    Great video. Thanks for posting this. Once you have the front emblem removed from the grill, is it possible to further dissemble the emblem? I'm hoping it's possible to separate the chrome "VW" from the emblem, with the goal of powder coating the VW black and remounting after I've used a gray vinyl wrap to cover the black backing piece. So, instead of the stock chrome-on-black emblem, I'd have a black-on-gray emblem which I could then reinstall on the grill. Thanks for any insight you might have!

    • @LastHumansGarage
      @LastHumansGarage  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      naw bro, i mean.. its possible.. sure.. if you have a solder iron to melt all the plastic attachment areas and stuff but not worth it.. i'd have to watch this again, i dont even remember what it looks like anymore.

    Thank you for this. I wrapped my rear emblem and was trying to figure out how to do the front.
    I’m going to get tint the whole circle
    Another option for the rear you might want to try with your broken old one, hydro dipping. It just might work

    • @LastHumansGarage
      @LastHumansGarage  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      broken old one is long gone. but ya hydro dip would work. might buy a new one and have it done.

    If I remember correctly the hardest part was the sides of the emblem to wrap? Now you can just use the front piece placing it on top of the black, so you’ll won’t have to worry with those flimsy side pieces

    First thing I did after I got the car was get the front end covered with PPF. VW has soft paint and chips easily.
