Debating a De-Badge

Just wanted some oppinions on how everyone feels about
de-badges RA's.

I was thinking of taking the Ralliart and Mitsubishi Emblems and placing them one under the other on the front driver side fender, under the side marker.

ive also contemplated puting the ralliart on the passenger side,
im not sure yet,
the clean look on the back might be refreshing and make some think its more like an ES, i might be wrong though.

its nice and hot today,
if anyone else has any good ideas on where i should put some of them,
i just think the in all its shiny glory on the driver side fender would look classy.

I like the clean look of mine - see my pics for how it looks the way I did it. I took off the Lancer and the Ralliart badges on the rear and left the emblem. I just tossed the Lancer badge in the trash and have the Ralliart badge lying around. I've debated putting it inside the car somewhere, but 1) I've been lazy, and 2) I haven't really found a good permanent place for it yet.

I say go for the debadging. I definately wouldn't put them back on the exterior of the car though. I think it'd just look awkward no matter where they ended up.

Plus, it's really easy to do on a warm day (it was 110+ here in Phoenix the day that I did it ).

I had all of my badges off my RA and I didn't really like it so all I did was put the back on and that's it. I like that look better than all of the badge clutter.

hairdryer to heat the epoxy,
dental floss or fishing line, use it to drag between the emblem and the car,
use goo gone to wipe off the residue.

I just bought mine last weekend and it's already de-badged. I was thinking of putting the badges back on but I kind of like the clean look for now and like someone already said... someone might pull up next to you thinking you're an ES and then as you wait for them to catch up at the next stop light they ask you if you got turbo.

If I ever do decide to put the RA badge back on it'll probably be on the front grill somewhere.
