Mate you car looks hot.

What I would do is take everything off but leave the Turbo badges on.

I want to pull my badges off but im am worried due to 1year and 4 months ago when bought new it had that paint protector sprayed on.

Will this peel off/leave a mark if I take off my badges??

Regards

Adrian

PS

Mine also has a paint protector! It left no marks so ever! I used dental floss to take the badges off and magures wax (which has been sitting here for years unsued) to take the left over sticky stuff off!

I debadged my hgag a couple of weeks back, before I decided to go through with it, I struggled with the idea... I have left the side XR6 ones though, just removed all from the rear except the FORD one of course.

from the second they were off and I had waxed the area, I knew I'd done the right thing, damn it's all machine now, people get so caught up in labels and forget to appreciate the look of pure perfection which is the XR.

now it's a stealth beast, people have no idea and with the grille's on the front, you can't see the intercooler.

so the pros = Looks clean & pure, cops don't care, thieves or damage doing Expensive Daewoo lovers not so inclined to cause trouble and you can't get debadged which usually comes with paint damage due to screwdrivers.

the cons = People in the know would expect a machine that can speak for itself without needing to show off, so an edit would compliment the look.

Yeah, have been thinking of doing it myself, the pics of the sideskirts on Paul's XR look really good. In some cases, less is more. Even if I keep the badges on the rear, the sideskirt stickers (and the one on the grill) may go. Besides, if I want to re-add them, can just as easily get the stickers again from "Ford Spares".
