ATM I've got chrome badges but i wanna make them black front & rear! Now there is 3 ways i know of on how to do this but what do you thinks best?

plastic badge covers
Vinyl wrapping
spray painting :S

i've already taken off my 'clio' badge at the back which was stuck on with adhesive but are the logos the same or screwed on? i don't wanna take it off the try put it back on with out have any adhesive left

cheers!

vinyl wrapp will do:approve:

yeah probably the most sensible thing to do got some carbon wrap on me so might use that! you any idea on whether the badges are stuck on or bolted?

 

[Clio RS 172]

probably are stuck on... but not 100%

Front one is clipped in I know that much. If any of it needs glue, go buy some, and glue it back on.

Rear one comes off fairly easy tbh, just unclips. Not sure if your need to remove the boot trim to get to the rear of it. I've heard the front ones a pain though, an that you need to get to the back of it so bumper will more then likely need removing. I have a mark 3 197 an tbh i was just going to wrap mine will either satin black vinyl or carbon vinyl just because when painting might not always gets the finish you want.

Rear diamond just unclips, front diamond is help on by 2 torx screws from behind iirc, check out www.clio197.net for a guide

Take the front bumper off and unscrew the front one, as the clips are fragile and vinyl/carbon wrapping is a ball ache but worth it if done right
