Took all of the badges of the boot this weekend. I think it looks a lot better. What do you think?

Looks good, but IMO it would look better if the 'Prodrive' was lower down, where 'Subaru' used to be.

Cheers guys. Prodrive was on there at the same time so to move it down I would have to take it off and the get another one. That's if it doesn't come off completely.

They were stuck onto mine with some glue of some description. All I did was heat the glue up a bit with some hot water (heard people suggest hairdryer too) then stuck dental floss behind to get them off. Excess glue was removed with WD40, a cloth and my Tesco clubcard. Knew I would find a use for it sometime.
Whole job took me about half an hour or so.

PS. You will have to polish it too but I was doing the whole car today anyway until i started to rain.

Looks good mate,are you trying to hide the fact that you have a quick car.
I think the spoiler gives it away.

Cheers all,
Prodrive sticker is coming off as soon as I get the time. I've jsut seen a few and liked the look so took mine off too.
Yeah i think it is foam type stuff that holds them on.

I was like that. Once I started though it was easy. You can always stick them back on again if you don't like it. Just get more foam stuff.
