Masking tape above and below the badge to mark the line of the plumb and then it can be taken off so wont be in the way for new badge or worry about it dropping off.
Thanks. That’s helpful too
So long as you've parked on the level, obviously!
Removed a huge rust blister from inside the edge of the sill/driver’s footwell and treated with rust killer.
Annoying that this 17 plate has more rust than my 17yr old A4.
Touch up primer tomorrow then try to make it pretty. I’m sure at some stage in the future it’ll need a professional job.

I am sure this is caused by debris thrown into that area ....
When door is closed I am sure debris can pass through whilst driving /even though door is closed ... ie you shut door then grit gets pressed into paint eventually causing damage / bottom of door can be affected also ... worth looking into
That could possibly be the case. But there appeared to be no damage, just a paint blister.
It’s probably related to the poor paint issue that VW deny exists. I’ve got 3 or 4 on the van in various places. Luckily this one can’t be seen under normal circumstances.
Did you have to remove the grill to fit the new black trim bits? I have some matt black trims to replace the chrome trims but was told I would need to remove the whole grill to fit them.
No these just pop off and new ones clip in really easy to do
Renovating a kiravans swivel base for a friend as they don't do spares for it. The powdercoat on underside of the top plate is very worn and will need re coating but should be peanuts if I prep myself.
New nylon friction layer little bit rough round the edges but will hopefully work better than the original.

Cheers brother. I purchased the sheet off of eBay £50 posted for 600mm x 600mm. Slightly narrower than original but only by 4mm. Same thickness though.
I'm going to tidy up the underside of the top plate as it's rough as a bears ass and can see gouges in the original material so I'll have to make it nice and smooth on all edges.
I like. Where did you got those?Just a little 5 minute job this afternoon, "seat belt pads " .Still continuing the Red theme.
