Default De-badge to boot?

Been thinking about taking the SUBARU and WRX badges off my 03 STI boot for a couple of weeks now, wouldnt do it myself so it would go to the local spray shop to be done.

Has anyone got any good pics to tempt me to get my **** in gear and do it?

Also, has anyone done it and put anything on in it's place? I've just had a 2.1 build done and was wondering if people maybe put a 'statement' badge on, a little ballsy maybe?

Cheers
John

Do a simple Google search for images - loads out there. Do do it yourself though - very easy. Did mine last week. Get them off using dental floss. Spray the sticky residue with WD40 a few times and leave to soak. Peel off the residue and wash the area. I then used TCut to get rid of slight marks. Job was a good un after 20 mins or so.

Warm them with a hairdrier before the dental floss The WD40 works a treat LOL
