Bootlid Debadge Pics Options

[STi_Bandit]

After spending some of today cleaining the polish out from inside the letters and badages on the bootlid i wondered what the rear would look like debaged, or the options available like :-

1. Just Remove SUBARU

2. Remove SUBARU and WRX Impreza

3. Remove Subaru, WRX and the type UK badage (Just leaving STI)

Pics of the various options would be of help guys n girls, also whats the best way to get these off.

[STi_Bandit]

Piece of flat plastic and gental pressure, then remove the glue residue with some petrol on a cloth. The petrol disolves the adhesive. Then polish up. (I didnt bother with that bit)

[bigdavie]

if yer wanting the clean look then have the boot lock removed too !!

makes it look soooo lush !! that is the very first mod i done to my scoob ! debadge and de-lock !!

i love it but then i quite like the minimalist / euro look !!

Use a claybar to get rid of the crap that it leaves too, not petrol.

[rabskyline]

why no petrol ?? petrol gets on the paintwork under the filler neck loads of times and does no harm that i have ever came across and takes of gummy residue.

Petrol will also strip waxes and sealants from the paintwork I believe.

A claybar will strip some of, but not all, the waxes etc according to PB's website. Petrol = designed to power the car. Claybar = designed to clean the paint. Simple really. Use the proper tools for the job. You wouldn't go to the garage and watch them take your wheels off with a screw driver.

Just SUBARU off my WRX. I just prised the letters off and then loads of elbow grease and polish. It was a bit of a nightmare! Worth it in the end though.

With no badges, just the boot lock.

Got a bodyshop to do it, tenner i think it was.
