When you separate the back from the front piece, the VW emblem is see through - so this is why wrapping or plasti dipping will effect the radar. Here are pics which will hopefully make it clearer.

    Hope the pictures are clear & I am making sense!
    Dig your blacked out Tig. Looking to do matte black rear emblem and was wondering where you picked yours up? I’ve seen where ones made for the MKVII Golf work, but seems dependent on the quality and if the clips line up. Also a fan of your R Line front emblem. I haven’t seen anything of the sort here in the States.

    Thanks for any help on locating.

    badgeskins.com has vinyl overlays for all badges/emblems (and more) if you’re after a cheap and quick fix. Would recommend

    Thanks, tried them for “blacking” out clear parts of the rear tails, not that impressed. Looked better in their pictures. So rather get the real deal or just paint the rear emblem myself.

    Yeah and I got the clear cover of the front badge scratched the first week I had it and they wanted $363 for the PLASTIC COVER.

    Not the whole thing and that was way back in 2011.

    Looks good, I’m sure it is easy. Just have to balance time available to do with two little ones. Easier to order and pop on.

    Did you add in deep black pearly inserts?

    fair call - I have one toddler to manage so can only imagine if that was doubled

    the insert is gloss black from factory. Ideally i would want these to be body coloured but havent gotten around to looking at the insert options (i have seen them out there)

    May hold off, my buddy said then I’ll have to black out the other chrome pieces and the front badge. I’m not about to spend ~$300 for that piece. Even though I’d love to do that. But he’s somewhat right, where does it end, ha!

    Plus just test drove a 2019 XC60 (wife is looking).

    Can anyone confirm if a mk7 or 7.5 rear badge is required to replace the rear Tiguan badge
