    New Beetle bonnet emblem

    Does anyone know where I could get one of these - or will I have to go through a stealership?

    The clearcoat on mine has flaked off after 10 years and the blue color is almost gone. It looks pretty dodgy.

    The NB ones are different to normal VW ones as it is curved and sits flush to the bonnet.


    I;ve found them through US retailers but shipping cost is bananas!

    2 places are ebay and NB Store Shop - JEDER TAG WIRD MIT NEUEN INNOVATIVEN IDEEN UND DESIGNSTÜCKEN REICHER! . if your front one is worn out then the back on can't be far off. buy both at once to save on shipping.

    you'll find guides to replacing the badges online, but i'll explain briefly. the front one is a pain to get off. use adhesive remover or wax and grese remover to soften the glue behind it. get some strong fishing line and use it to "saw" the glue underneath the badge. the badge has 2 pins on it so you will have to work from top to middle and bottom to middle i think.
    the back on is easy enough to swap, but requires unscrewing your old lock and putting it back together. be careful not to drop the old one and chip the paint :S
