How come so many people debage their EVOs? I mean, the USDM badge in the corner of the trunk isn't so great, but I really like the JDM Evolution trunk badge. You know, the one that spans pretty much the entire width of the trunk. I think it looks cool...

So...what's the point of debaging other than to maybe keep the cops off your tail?

 

i took the "Lancer Evolution" off, but left the sign... i dont know, looks cleaner to me. i don't think i'd ever completely debadge tho.

 

The car has a much cleaner look without any badges (in my opinion anyway). Its all about preference.

 

I also tok the "Lancer Evolution" off the corner of my trunk and left the sign. But I also put the "Evolution VIII" lettering back on. Ive been told by my younger brother it looks "cocky"

 

It was something to do. I kept the evolution on mine. Yes, it does look cleaner.

 

Ya. Debadging really doesn't affect the cop factor. You woul have to take your wing off for that. It just makes the trunk look better. It's really a matter of opinion. I kept mine on until I saw another one that had been debadged, and I like it, so I took mine off too.

 

i thought people with lancers debadge and the peeps with evo's rebadge, the euro EVOLUTION VIII emblems....

 

hehe... yeah, i never really like the big letters across the mid... messes up the cleanliness in my opinion.. like to keep it simple

 

it's a fad similar to when it was cool to walk around with your jeans rolled up.

 

I left the badging on. Keeps it original. Kind of like when someone restores an antique or muscle car. You want every original detail.

 

It is a free and easy way of personalizing your car. "I want to be different, just like everybody else".

 

I debaged and bout the JDM badge and threw it on along with the symbol.

I only took off the evolution lettering. Kept the Lancer badge on to represent. Who doesn't know that it's an EVO? And those who don't know should keep guessin

 

B/c badges in general are "ghey"

They are free advertising for auto manufacturers

 

thats what I did, it looks better
