Hi from another FLASH RED owner. i am thinking of spraying my seat badge red. i think it would look good against the black grill.:whistle
![[B)]](/forums/styles/seatcupra/oldforumsmileys/shades.gif "Cool [B)]")
have you thought of doing that ?

Yeah hopefully there's enough paint on itDid you do your back badge also? was wondering what that would look like or to leave well alone
I did the badge black and had so many layers of paint etc that it never fitted back properly so I held it in place with some glue.....which after about 3 days failed....the badge fell out (never to be seen again) and I left the car with no badge at all.
My old LCR
I did wonder this but thought it may look tacky, maybe wrong though, would like to see the end result if you do it Andy
Looks mint Steve, do you have another LCR now then? did you fancy a colour change or something?

No I sold my car back in Feb this year (to another fourm member) because I changed jobs and went from a car allowence to a company car.
Although I hated selling it my credit card is a lot happier now it has been sold.
I would love to get another SEAT but the company car selection doesn't stretch to SEAT. Who knows what the future will hold though I may decide I have had enough of working here in the new year.
Just a quick photoshop edit to show you what the red might look like mate

looks good... get your rims refurbed in shaddow chrome/black next tho!
I have been thinking 
of taking the S badges off and covering with carbon fibre wrap (maybe even the sheet you get from helfrauds) cause I think that would look pretty cool esp on a darker car!!

James,
Cheers for the pm i'm going to get right on it.
Steve,
Again, as usual, cheers for the info. I had to laugh at the thread, there is a post that takes the p*ss out of a fella using a coat hanger to get the badge out of the void. Just did that and was swearing big time!!
I was just doing the investigative poke and it fell out, b*llocks!! Now i've got no excuse, I even quite like it without the chrome surround and s. It also occured to me that the void behindn the S if I left it blank would make a great air intake
