De-Badged or Not De-Badged ??

I've been debating for about 3 weeks whether to de-badge the car or not. I have a 01 CLS w/ spoiler. What would you do or what do you have ?

If yours is de-badged could you post some pics..?

I really like the look of the rear now.

I debated removal for months and decided last year to retire those tacky silver letters and keep people behind me wondering;

"3.2 what??"

I debadged mine at the dealer when I took delivery, taking off the front plate had to be done at home though.

If your cars a type-S, and you debage the sucker, its kind of a sleeper. Only way someone will find out is when they see your tails

Take off the badges. You also prevent any punks from stealing the "Type-S" logo on the back...
