Default Source for 3D VW Hood & Trunk Badges?

Hi,

(Flame deflector: I've searched here, Googled and eBay'd.)


I'm looking for new hood and hatch badges, the 3D kind, not the flat. I'd prefer new versus used.

I've found one NOS rear hatch 3D badge, but the seller is in the UK. I'd like to find a US source to save $$ on shipping and hopefully get front and rear from the same source.

Anyone have a lead?

I haven't tried the stealership yet, I know I can probably get them there if I want to pay max $.

Thanks in advance.

I priced one a few years ago and it wasn't that bad. $55 or something.

might as well just go to the dealership.... something like that is gonna be hard to find new. Or just go used and be done with it either way.

The stealership in my area wants 70+ for just the rear badge. I'm thinking about refinishing my own flat badge just to avoid the pummeling.
