Default De-badge or not?

Should I de-badge this or leave it? Or replace the badges with others? I'm a new Subaru owner. Don't know how you guys roll lol

Check out the post below to give you some idea's of how it would look. Doesn't matter how "we roll" its your car at the end of the day and it's up to you how it looks

BTW: Grz on the car, looks nice

That's it done. It was quite messy but I used wd40 to get the glue off and it worked pretty well. Still need to give it a tcut to get the outline away properly

I'm not sure why you would want to clear the back and then add more stickers elsewhere I'd take them off the spoiler.
