I took mine off for looks.

 

If the Badges were to leave a hole in the Trunk would still take them off.

 

I did it, because it is less to have to work around when detailing the car.

 

Yes I debadge to a certain extent. Makes the car/truck look cleaner and I don't debadge if there's holes. Lots of cars come with too many badges. I usually leave the badge on the front grill, but usually take the badges off the back.
As soon as the weather turns warmer in the Spring,I plan on debadging my 2010 TL leaving just the "A" front & back.

 

manufacturers badge the cars to get free advertising.

as far as people keeping emblems to show off, I think thats bull. Most people think its part of the car and non removable.

I debadged 2 of my cars except the front and rear emblems. Some cars look better debadged and others don't.

 

I'm de-badging the logo the fools at the dealer put on. I saw pics of G's with just the Infiniti sign and the Infiniti letters and it looks good, so I'm de-badging the G35x as well. I thought everyone de-badged for the looks until I saw a BMW 328 w/ M3 decals .

 

I live in florence SC where there are only a handful of acuras, and a very very small amount of TSX's. So I guess I did it to keep it that way. So some rich kid cant say hey thats nice i'll get one too. I just need to get that mugen grill and i'll be 100% badge-less except for the 4 acura symbols in the wheels, which are hard to see while i'm rolling by at 65 mph

 

I'm wrong. Looks a lot better.

^this is why I took the Acura and TL badges off of my car.
