Default Detailed and Debadged

Just had the car detailed and decided it was a good time to debadge the car. I really like the clean look and it needed a bit of polishing where the badge was.

Paint is amazing now, not sure how long it will stay that way.

Paint should stay that way as long as you put a bit of effort in it while washing and drying it.

Looks nice!

I really like the look of the rear without the badge.

Simply awesome! It's not like we need the badges to know what it is...the shape speaks for itself.

To each his own. I happen to like the badge. I'm glad you're happy.

I'll never remove mine; it says "turbo."

(Sorry guys for that momentary episode of douche-baggy-ness).

Years ago I ran a narrow-body turbo--with no badge. What a sandbagger that thing was! (The periodic blue flames licking from the tailpipe was the only visual clue).

Your performance would have been the same back then with the badge.

I was behind your Massachusetts alter ego for the New Hampshire Ramble two weekends ago.

Thats funny Todd, thanks. Looks like he forgot the umlaut though.
