Debadging a Formula I'm debating whether to get the silver overlays for the Formula badges on my 02 NBM or just remove the badges altogether and go for that "sleeper" look. So far my only other appearance mod has been to tint my side markers with VHT. Opinions?
Also, since the car is 5 years old, is there a chance that I'll remove the badges and find that the paint underneath has faded unevenly, leaving a ghost image?

I say removed the molding, but keep the badging. I have no aspirations to make my car a sleeper. I have a formula, and kinda enjoy when people see my car and ask about it.

exactly, people don't see the high rise spoiler or ground effects and just laugh b/c they think it is a v6. but they don't laugh when they are looking at my tail lights.
