to debadge - or not to debadge

[reedbradshaw]

welll title more or less sums it up, i got a ibiza sport in yellow do they look good debadged? i like the smooth boot look but want to keep the big S what do you guys think ? shall iget it over and done with ? by the way my car is 05 so says seat in one corner then ibiza in the other - decided if i dont like it debadges then ill buy the spaced lettering from seat like Guiness did or i think it was Guiness his car mods faster than i can keep up

cheers lads Reed

debadged baby

 

[reedbradshaw]

will the colour be faded? the car is a 05 plate? nice car like allloys matey seen them on another thread

 

[croakey]

wouldnt of thought so....if youre worried about it, tcut the entire boot and repolish it..that should sort any mild mis-colouring

 

[reedbradshaw]

if i tcut the boot - wont it look different compared to the whole car ?

 

[croakey]

it probably wont need it dude

 

[rashcupra]

i hate debadging imo. it looks to plain re-aranging them or having something more suttle is the best option.

its up to you

 

[mattylol]

what he said ^^^^^^^ although some cars suit it

 

[croakey]

rash- kiss my goolies mate

i think debadging makes it looks smooth

 

[Poverty]

I dont think debaging suits the ibiza at all. I think seats look silly with the big S missing from the front.

Unless the IBIZA is not going across the middle of your boot I would debadge though.

 

[croakey]

mines still got the S grille as like you said it looks empty without it...as for the rear, same goes...keep the S ditch eveything else

 

[rashcupra]

if youve got a smooth tailgate then i can go with the smooth excuse but each to there own hey croakey

De badge it looks much better imho much cleaner

 

[danmay]

just picked mine up this morning, took it home, debadged the bugger lol i think it looks better for it, cleans up the back end nicely!
mine's an 04, can't tell where the badges have been to be fair, got some autoglym tar remover on the residue then just autoglym waxed it and it looks fine, you really can't tell!

was debating whether the turn the badges into the word 'B E A S T' accross the back lol but then i'd get major stick from the 'mates' (buggers lol) so decided against it

do it!! Trust!

 

[croakey]

you would of got some stick from me...i'd of suggest spelling twat...then realised they dont do those letters..and looked a fool myself, so i'm glad you didnt!

...and dude asking the question take word from the man above and get it done!

 

[rashcupra]

some 1 else on this forum has got beast written across the back got slated for it i fort it was funny

 

[Bryanek]

The danger is that it looks like someone's driven into the back of you and you were too tight to buy new badges when you replaced the boot!!!

 

[houseslut]

i reckon that you debadge it but replace it with something stupid, like 'fart'

OR PENIS!

Took mine off my black Ibiza (53 plate) and it was fine. Just polished it up after.
