RE: Removing rear Jetta emblem



You're right--there is an appeal to keeping a nice car stock. Watching TNN
the other day, some guy had a '66 or '67 Corvette. Restored TOTALLY to
stock, except for maybe the battery. The guy even pointed out small places
where some interior panels were not painted because that's the way they came
out of the factory. Stunning automobile.

Keep your A2 the way it should be.
