Joel15limited Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Has anyone debadged their '15+ legacy? Thinking of doing mine but a bit hesitant. Anyone have pictures? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mtland Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 I just used goo gone automotive 1 hr ago on the remnants left over from the previous dealers logo. Worked like a charm. Ive heard a heat gun/blow dryer will get it off...google it maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chowser51 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Did goo gone and hair dryer. old old picture, but you get the idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benacy Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Heat gun or hair dryer will do the job nicely it's supported by some form of glue, when the badge is off heat the rest of the glue to remove but keep it just in case you want the badge back on, saves you going out and buying loads.

Haboob Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Hoping to have the stealership debadge it upon purchase if/when I do. I nearly messed up my Z debadging and I don't want to make another mistake, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ovcoursitsilver Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Chowser51 I notice you've made the lower valence black. I always liked that contrast on my '05 LGT. Did you paint it or vinyl wrap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chowser51 Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 I cheaped out. It's plastidip. I dipped the piece between the plate and Subaru emblem as well. I also stuck a black decal with red stars over the emblem as well. The plastidip on the back and the front grill have been on there since summer of '15. It's held up all this time. I did vinyl wrap the roof in matte black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ovcoursitsilver Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 I was thinking of having that piece on the trunk betweeen the tail lights wrapped with clear gloss chrome. But they tell me it doesn't wear well. Probably wouldn't make it through our winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilot1226 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Did you use any type of card or felt-tipped card to remove the stickers? I'm expecting an annoyance from the dealer stickers on my next one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaseDoGG Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 I used a heat gun and plastic scraper. Then goo gone. Then cleaned it. Then clay bar. Then paint correction. Then wax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilot1226 Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Paint correction? Really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaseDoGG Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Yeah after the goo gone I could still see the outline of the badges. Now it's perfect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mclarenf3 Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Yep, I had the same issue when I debadged my trunk. I haven't done a paint correction, though, but I may take it to a detailer to have them take care of. It's only noticeable when it hits the light at certain angles. I tried a claybar, but it didn't remove it. See here for more details: http://legacygt.com/forums/showpost.php?p=5669482&postcount=1 On another note, for all of you that have debadged a 3.6R, any chance I can buy the emblem off of you? I'm considering placing the 3.6R on the front panel near driver door like Infinity does, always liked that. I love the look of my clean trunk, so I've got one already from there, just need one more.

chowser51 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 I'll look for mine. If I find them, you can have them. I took them off August 15th, 2014 though (the day after I bought the car). If it's not in the trunk, I'm not sure where I put it, but I will look today, if I find it, I'll pm you. I got lucky when I test drove the car. It had just come off the truck and they haven't prepped it yet. The white cover things were still on the car and the seats were covered in plastic. My kids and I test drove it and said we'll take it. I told them not to do anything to the car but some darn kid drilled holes in the front when they moved my plates over. I already plan to be at the dealership when my next car comes in and when they take it off the truck, they're to do nothing to it, not even prep it, my detailer and I will be there to take it so he can prep it, ceramic pro it, tint the windows and wrap the roof in carbon fiber. (I've already decided on my next car ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ovcoursitsilver Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 After telling the salesman not to put ANY dealer stickers or plates on my '05 LGT, when I went to pick it up they had put a dealer plate on the front bumper. We have no front licence plates in Quebec and I didn't want them to drill holes in the front bumper for the licence plate bracket. Needless to say I was miffed but when I got upset the salesman went over and peeled the plate off the bumper. It was held on with double-sided tape. I think he may have done it on purpose...

Pilot1226 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Well I’m hoping that if they put the dealer emblem stickers on there I can remove it without too much fuss or residue since it will only be on there a few days tops. I’ve heard they use a felt tipped card thing. Will try that and a blow dryer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
