I took both off mine because I like watching people walk back and forth trying to figure out what it is. Also the kids by my friends house like pulling all or half of the badge off trying to be funny, so I beat them to it.

 

^+1 - i took all mine off, i love it when ppl get really close trying to see what it is... at my school, i forgot my parking pass one time, and the guy who writes the tickets, (some old guy) didnt know what to write as what kind of car so he wrote "black race car"

I think the back looks much cleaner without the badges, but its up to you.

 

I'm not sure about our car's having an identity "crisis". I raced a rabbit when after the race , we were tied, the owner knew my car wasn't an oz rallly because of my headrests and wheels, hence my devotion to buy some five lug mitsy wheels.

 

I say do it. I am going to do that this summer. I think it gives the car a clean look.

 

Take them off.... seen to many people get there stuff messed up because some a-hole thought it would be funny to use a screwdriver and or there keys and steal the damn things... because they think its funny to scratch the hell out of your trunk lid...


lol had the same problem when i went back home to ohio a few years ago... got pulled over in indiana for speeding when there wasn't a damn sign saying it changes in town.. guess you gotta assume there was a limit change... grr...anyway as i sat there in his unmarked SS camaro... he said "I have know idea what kind of car that is.... enlighten me" had an 02 ES at the time btw

 

I took off the Diamond logo as well as the Lancer badge and left the Ralliart on there cause I like it. Like most people here, I removed it for cleanliness and makes it all smooth in the back.

 

I have it done and I love the cleanliness... I got the lancer S.S. plate frame though so that is kinda a giveaway to what the car is....Plus im sportin ES taillights and this week the O-Z spoiler goes on.....damn I cant wait

 

Easy answer take the badges off, you will be very happy, very clean lookin, plus like everyone here has been sayin, ppl will be scratichin their heads tryin to figure out if they want to race you.

 

yeaa def take em off nice clean look ...well imo put the ralliart badge in front of the shifter thats what i did n i like....
