Yes, junk em all other than the STI emblem.

The boots look far too busy with all those silly badges anyway. Why does it need to say "subaru" on it.

as if anyone doesnt know what car it is... and if they dont who cares lol

I dont mind the front end to be honest. Im in two minds as to whether I should do the boot or not. Im currently fitting silvervision indicators on the rear and tempted to start peeling the subaru lettering off

My car came debadged as standard and I think it looked too bare. Now has the standard Subaru stars badge (sorry, this did come as standard but was the only badge) an Impreza and STI logo. I think it needed the latter to balance the lock on the boot.

Gonna do a partial on mine when I get the time. Not many free mods in this world that improve the car!

I prefer it WITH the badges personally. It can look a bit bland with nothing on it.

Yeah, too many badges on a car can make it look rubbish!

Debadging seems to be popular in the States. Check out the members gallery on NASIOC
