Fishing line, gloves, Goo-Gone, paper towels, and car wash to remove the Goo-Gone residue. ??

Beautiful! Love the blue, too. I'm leaning toward removing everything on the sides (car is black) and leaving my GT on the back.

I removed the front door badges and put the Chinese market GT emblems in their place. ??

I'm 41; my first car in 1999 was a Honda Civic "SI". Too embarrassed to share the things I did to that thing to make it look good and feel faster, including changing the badging. #VTEC :cwl:

I got sideswiped on the bridge and told the body shop to leave them off the side I got hit and to take them off the side I didn't get hit. I think it looks better with out Mach E 423(*&$#@0879rwetuaoiua on the side. I don't even know what it means.

Remove? Back when I had my old '89 Mustang and interning at the NUMMI (now Tesla) plant, I swiped one of the 'LIMITED' badges and stuck it on the side of my car. I had a few people over the years ask, "What makes it 'limited'? :cool:

I’m older. ?? My first car I pulled the OE engine out of in favor of a lightly built high-compression 455 when the car was new (bye-bye extended powertrain warranty). It’s been getting mods and new engine builds since then. It feels a little faster but doesn’t look any faster. ??

No, I would never do that. We all have our opinions, but I would hardly use the word "cluttered" for a few badges/nameplates on a car.

definitely not a right or wrong way. Both look great just personal taste

Yes, I prefer the look without the badges. Strangely, I can't get the car dealership logo off the back of my car. I used the method I've always used: glue gun to heat, goo gone, dental floss. Unfortunately, it's stuck on there like it's part of the car.

I didn’t bother with dental floss to get my manufacturer badges off. I used 10 lb. test monofilament fishing line. Make sure to use gloves or a couple of dowels. That stuff is so fine it will cut up your fingers. ??
