As some of you may remember reading I had a bit of bad luck in the recent high winds. A roof tile fell onto the spoiler of my scoob. I had to get it done on the insurance and subsequently had to replace the bootlid too!
Now....
What I want to know is should I replace all the badges or leave it debadged and clean?
I have a pretty good idea of what I want but I wouldnt mind a few other opinions...
BADGED
CLEAN
Plesae let me know what you all think looks best in your opinion
Just add a WRX badge opposite the boot lock to balance it out a bit then? I reckon it will look good...but the S U B A R U badge is a right pita to clean around.
I much prefer badged, even if only S U B A R U, but I do like corradoboy's idea too. I went to buy a 3 month old WRX, but changed my mind when I saw it had been debadged. (Although the towbar didn't help either). It just didn't look right. It was as if it had just come back from the bodyshop but not been finished!
Seriously interested in doing this to my motor mate, can I ask where I can get something like this done? And what are the costs...?
Bought the badges from a local performance styling and accessory shop for £1.50 a letter, fitted myself in under 10 minutes with a length of cotton, a 2' steel rule and some lo-tack masking tape.
I thought i would like the clean look, but having now seen your photos i actually dont!
So, get the Subaru put back and leave it at that i think. Keeps you guessing then. lol.
I'd just stick the 'WRX' back on, I prefer it without the 'Subaru' on the back to be honest. I'm thinking about taking mine off at some point this week.
Badges have to come off, they are overkill. Even Subaru think so as they replaced the stupid single letters with a small badge instead in the center of the boot.

I would keep the badges, but agree the S U B A R U badge really is a pain to clean around!
