With or without badges?
 
The previous owner of my spec D STI had it rebadged as an STI and I am thinking of undoing this. What do you all think? Photos in "View my scooby".

If I was to debadge it how would I do it? Would it need a respray?

there was a youtube video on here showing how to do it

So you've got an STi that's been rebadged as an STi?

I'd just leave it if I were you! :)

Without badges dude :thumb: after all that's what the "D" is all about man.

Mikkel 10 July 2007 01:04 PM

I'll do a search on YouTube then, unless anyone has any tips to share?

I think I will debadge it if I go for the A-line spoiler as the whole 'D' aspect has been lost anyway with the upgraded spoiler. Still undecided.

A hair dryer for about 10-15 seconds over the badge is enough to heat it up enough to peel them off. Just get some dental floss or fishing wire behind the badge and move it gently along until it comes off.

I heated the glue back up again once the badge was off for again about 10-15 seconds and it just rolled off when pushing with the thumb.

As Anderooo says. Definately without badges :thumb:.

Wolfie.

Ok thanks. What about the badge on the grill at the front, does it unclip or something?

imo leave them on as it is an STi. STi steering wheel, wheels etc.
