Hello..this is probably a silly post but i am really tempted to remove the Citroen and Saxo badge's from the back of my VTR and I just wondered how difficult this is? Is there any risk of any paint being taken off?

many thanks,
jez

I removed mine - was left with tiny holes (noticeable only close up) soon after got them smoothed in, i reckon its worth removing them actually. And its very easy to do, and shouldn't damage any paintwork at all.

As devildamo says - colour code them.

Adds a nice subtle touch and you`re still proudly showing your badges

Leave them on Jez! Much less hassle, instead of paying a bodyshop to fill in the holes, put the money towards other areas of the car.... and besides, it's more "patriotic" towards the saxo-ness of your car!

Sorry for the controversy but i really dislike de-badged cars...looks a weeny bit silly IMO.

Just an example of the colour coded badges I had on my VTR...



Still there but subtle and effective (in my opinion).
