Remove or not?

I am trying to decide whether or not I should remove the S60, 2.5T, and Volvo badge from the back of my car. I like the clean look, but I am not sure on this car. What do you think?
 
I vote for leaving them on there. Just a personal preference of course, but sometimes when badging is removed from cars it looks tacky to me.
 
Leave the factory badging alone. Remove any dealer badging, stickers, or license plate frames at once.

This is merely an opinion thread here but I personally like the look of a clean car. I remove all of the badges and stickers immediately.

I remove everything. I think it just looks more unique. It's sets your vehicle away from the bunch. On this pic, I had my antenna shaved as well as my rear lock. Then the Acura "A", the Integra symbol, and filled in/painted the "INTEGRA" engraving on the rear bumper. Just a smooth look IMO.

The layout on my A4 is similar and I strongly considered removing the badged but I decided to keep them. Curiously, on most other vehicles, probably with the exception of your too, I would de badge :dunno
 
I personally do NOT like it when badges are removed, though I can understand wanting to if you detail. Here:

I thought people debadged so you didn't know they had the smaller motor or the cheaper model.( Altimas and BMW's come to mind ) . Maybe I'm wrong . It does make sense from a detailing point of view though.

I say leave 'em on and get a blacked out liscense frame ..
P.S. Boy that rearend is wide..lol
 
I like them removed. Much cleaner look and something you dont have to worry about cleaning residue from. I removed mine cause my ww towels would catch them and pull a strand when I am QDing or S&Wing. I have to admit though, some cars do look better with them.
 
If it were my car i'd remove the S60 and 2.5T emblem, leaving just the volvo on the top. Unless you have a heavily modded car(Sean's Teg) or have a sleeper, I wouldn't remove ALL the badges. My friend did it with his new altima and it looks WAY to plain. Lochi and Corey's cars look good just with the manufacturer emblem.
