    I've replaced my badges with the current version. I reckon it's much better than the old logo. It looks fresh and modern. I'm more than happy with the results.

    Got my badges replaced under recall yesterday at Brisbane Prestige. Great service and done quickly. No hesitations in promoting their service. Well done to Adrian and the team

    I think that's an improvement as well. Where did you get them from?

    Did you replace the alloy wheel caps too? How about the steering wheel centre logo?

    Had both of mine replaced due to peeling of the clear coat, even after being told this recall didn't apply to mine.

    Seems branding and brand image is rather important.

    Elektron,

    Purchased them from Super Skoda website. Paid about $55 AU for front and rear. Took me about two hours (being very careful not to scratch or damage anything) to fit. They really look much better than the old green badge. I actually think it makes the car look fresh. The old green badges are really dated.

    Funny that the dealerships still use the green logos everywhere along with a green theme

    I much prefer the original and traditional Skoda badge.
    The new one looks like a badge on a car out of China.
