Default Yay OR Nay?
Badges or not?

With badges:

No badges:

Which one looks better? Should I leave it off or put it back on?

Personal prefferance really, I took mine off, just because I think it looks cleaner with the side moldings and badges gone. Just my opinion, do what you think looks better, either way your car looks nice.

Tough call... I like them both. Without badges it looks much cleaner. But with the silver badges it looks good, very subtle. I say keep the badges.

If you're going to leave the emblems Silver, then I'd leave them off of the car. Make them black and they'd look nice. I prefer the monochromatic look.

Leave those suckers off! Makes the car look clean. I still got mine on but only b/c they're body colored.

I am not a fan of badges. Infact, I took off the ram air ones on the hood...looks better. 69's do look better, I think! Good call...

I third it. I like black badges. It keeps it looking clean, but the badges are still there.
