Your question at the end seems kinda confusing, if your asking if there's a hole where the emblems are, then no. They are all glued on. I'd say take a look at both and go with whatever style you like, both looks better than stock imo. Personally, I think it's cleaner with no emblems at all.

H-town=hastings?

h-town = hastings? yes....only and first evo to live in hastings haha....i'll pry just debadge it bc the dude before me painted the mitsu emblem bronze to match the wheels and the paint is chipping on it...so if i don't like the clean look(which is highly doubtful) i'll change to a new chrome emblem and uk badge or just the emblem....

I rock just the diamond star on mine. I didn't like the Lancer Evolution badge at all, one of the first things I did was take it off.
