Default Time to debadge?

Howdy

Thinking about removing the badges off of the back of my 330s. Does anyone know if they are just stuck on or do they have little nipples and will therefore leave me with some pretty holes to deal with?

Ahh but I like stealth. Might leave the 330s badge but get rid of the rest. All that weight will be slowing me down!

With the prodrive quad exhaust, how stealthy do you think you're gonna be?!?! No-one ever gets close enough to the **** of my 330S to read the small print anyway. Come on, we don't buy these cars to be inconspicuous, do we? Be proud of your excellent taste.

WD40 is good to get rid of excess adhesive, but yes, they just peal off. If you can't go the hairdryer route, use dental floss, or fishing line behind the badge to cut the adhesive

I really dig OEM badging, personally. Because it's "meant to be".

So much so, I reinstated the 'huge' green "WRX-STi" boot sticker on my v.5 STi (I like 'em believe it or not ).

Don't like the big vinyl/plastic stickers. Rebadged with the nice shiny chrommy ones (UK WRX stylee), not OE i know but looks so much neater imho

Did consider leaving them off, but as said above, let um know what you've got



Ignore the lexarse they've been swapped for OE.
