Imo keep the badges and remove the molding. I am getting my 97' Z repainted this August. I plan on getting new badges for the car but getting the molding removed.

Unless your car has sat outside since new the color shouldnt be off much. You may have to do a minor wetsand and buff... a general detail job.

You guys don't like the moldings? I remember when I had my first accident with my old camaro (not my fault), the body shop forgot to put the moldings on my driver side area and it looked weird, had to go back to the shop right away lol.
