agctr Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Personally I dont understand taking the badages off...... If we owned a 318 or 320 or wanted to "MAKE PPL BELIEVE I HAD AN M" yeah go for it, but its a GT, top of the range...... Just my thoughts. Gish Im starting to sound like Kevin.... LOL only joking...

Cascade-LGT Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 [size=1]It's cosmetic - it just looks better/cleaner. I totally debadged my Audi A6 4.2 - I don't need to make a statement(mis-statement?) I just want my cars' appearance to please me...[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mightyS Posted December 10, 2004 Share Posted December 10, 2004 I don't mind the badges. I don't like the little 2.5 on there. That's not needed since they are all 2.5 engines. I do hate dealer ad stickers/badges on cars. Mine came with none but had that dealer plate holder. That came off right away. The dealer didn't pay me for his advertising on MY car. There is no way I'd keep it there. Once the deal is done, I don't care anything about the dealer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JessterCPA Posted December 10, 2004 Share Posted December 10, 2004 [quote name='ih8vtec13']Do any of you that have debadged get any extra hassel from the cops?[/QUOTE] Why would the cops be more attracted to your car because of no badges?? I don't understand your concern here. Hey, they might even mistake it for a Camry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squirrel-bait Posted December 10, 2004 Share Posted December 10, 2004 A few weeks ago I saw a Geo Prizm with the full complement of Mercedes E-Class badging on it. Even a Tri-star hood ornament. Caused me to do a double- or triple-take. Hilarious. sqrl b8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maosta Posted December 10, 2004 Share Posted December 10, 2004 I'm going to leave the logo and the legacy emblem. Everything else will be debadged, when I get a chance. :D That's a damn good sugar cookie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaze Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 I finally took the plunge and debadged my LGT trunk lid, looks nice. Even the wife mentioned that it looked better...and I had originally caught some flak from her when I told her that I was planning to do this a couple weeks ago.

Random Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Okay, probably going to get flamed for this but.... How about only removing SOME of the badging? Leave the bolded letters... le[b]GA[/b]c[b]Y[/b]:lol: :D Seriously dude, it's your car, do what you want with it. If you want to debadge it, do it. Don't do it for the approval of others, or not do it because of others scorn. There are going to be people out there who do things to their car that you don't like, and YOU will probably do things to your car that THEY won't like. Get over it. Do what makes you happy!

bmc Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 I took off all but the legacy. It looked like there was too much there with the subaru, legacy and 2.5GT.. IMO looks much better now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mvigneau Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Should I wait for it to get warmer out (under 40 degrees in NH)? Or should I just use a heatgun or whatnot? No Silent CD Aux-In Solution Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MtnSub Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 You can see how I voted, [img]http://premium.uploadit.org/cultofthejedi/Dsc00039.jpg[/img] I like to debadge all my cars. I may get rid of 2.5 or all of it, but right now I like the 2.5GT. I have been asked several times what kind of car I have because many people that like nice cars do no the the blue stars Suby logo. People also ask if my car is lowered. Have fun, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IwannaSportSedan Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 I'd loose the advert license frame even before debadging the trunk. But that is just me. I think the Subaru star emblem, and a chrome and Cherry Blossom STi rear badge in the lower right just says it all. Now if Subie would just build us one that way!!!

LEGGTLTD Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 Okay, silly question... how do you de-badge it? Do they simply pull off? Or do you use a hair dryer to heat it up then pulll it off? What is the technique, thanks.

Blaze Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 I think the detailed instructions were posted in this thread, or maybe it was another one. Here's a quick & dirty rundown: - use a hair dryer to soften up the doublestick tape - use fishing line or dental floss to peel the badges off - use Goo Gone (the orange degreaser), or another mild degreaser to get rid of the sticky gunk on your car. It was simple and took me about 10 min....and I'm not a big modder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scooter Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 TO EACH, THEIR OWN!!! I kinda liked the nice balanced look of just having the SUBARU and LEGACY badges (removed 2.5GT), but in the end those came off, too. I just like the clean look without them, but the Legacy badges are actually much nicer looking than other cars I've had so it wasn't really 'necessary' - just a personal decision. I used a hair dryer and a thin plastic spatula and they came off real easy. You can get most of the residue off with your Mark-1 thumb, and the rest with a little Bug-and-Tar remover. Seek first to understand, then to be understood. In other words: SEARCH before you post! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midnght Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 I say take it all off. I have done it on all my cars.

Xenonk Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 I love it when I pass by a ricer and at the next light they ask me what kind of car it is.. and I usually just say "Subaru", and they think it's a modded Camry.
