I have just debadged mine and left the boot handle which Iam gonna colour code soon, ands left the vaux badge in middle.

I am not 100% sure but I think that glasgow_corsa_c has done it, or is going to do it on his red corsa. And RobboSRi has done it on his silver corsa.

fibreglass matt up the back then filler. only small holes so that method is perfect.

take the badge off, from inside the boot cover over the back of the holes with fibreglass matt, then fill in the front with body filler. no need to weld as they are really tiny holes. then just sand it smooth then get painted up.

well cant u fill it with black filler (being carefull) and then just go over it with t-cut or wouldnt this work, im basing this on the principle that t-cut melts the surrounding paint and smuges it over the filler, then get some turtle wax and give it a polish?
