nahh you cant de-badge the standard one, or do what i have done and spray the silver V black, but the only way to de-badge is to buy a grill but they're only about a tenner anyway so not all bad.

well i just masked up around the plastic grill it and sprayed the chrome bit in place, i removed the actual grill tho obv and sprayed it on the floor not on the car :lol: i think you can remove the chrome, but i think the clips would break if you did tho. and im not sure about the cv joint, i guess it would be the same not sure for certain tho
