Its an emblem not a sticker, but I havent had badges on it since I built it and really dont plan too. I just dont like the looks of them. Looks much cleaner without them imo

orangenotch - car is looking great. I will soon make a thread with my build. Motor is going to be a solid roller 408. May have a few questions for you once I get deep into the swap.
