Default Clean look

I think it looks cleaner without the emblems and bumber rails.

What I did was get some fishing line and work my way down threw it. Once I got it all off there was some sticky residue you can just rub off with your finger. Once that's done just wash your car and for the first couple washes if you look close you can see the old markings.

I got some goof off and finisher it. I think it looks alot cleaner

I love the smooth clean look. Too many emblems makes me want to punch small animals.
