Default De-badge

<center><img src="http://images.cardomain.com/member_images/4/web/568000-568999/568337_17.jpg"></center><p>Should I de-badge my car? With it all being blacked out thought it may look good. Only thing is I am scared it may have the numbers and letters faded on the paint? Feed back from anyone who has done this?

I de-badged my car, left the rings.. It looks slick, you won't regret doing it.

Default Some feedback....

Here's a view of my car after I debadged it:

No worries about the lettering being 'faded' on the paint (well it would not be faded under the lettering); just get the paint underneath good and clean and then wax the area. You'll like the stealth look. Makes the rear of the car very clean looking. Go for it,then post new pics :-)
