debadging??
I was wondering if anyone debadged their cars...specifically the GS 350 and the AWD on the trunk, not the L emblem. I'm considering doing it but wondering if I should...any pics? THANKS!!

That was not the case on the 3GS. Once you removed the emblems, there were guide holes left in the trunk.

I was thinking about swapping mine out for black chrome to better match the wheels (I have a white GS) but then I remembered the front spindle grill chrome, the rear trunk chrome and of course the window chrome so I'm going to just leave it the way it is.
BTW debadging a GS doesn't hide anything, they all have the same engine. Now debadging a BMW is a different story, you could have a 328i with the 4cyl turbo and debadge it and someone wouldn't know it wasn't a 335i 6cyl turbo. Or debadge a 550i makes it a sleeper car because you woldnt know it wast a 528 lol

Thanks for the info! I figured there were no holes for the GS350 badge...what color is your car? do you have pics of the trunk?? THANKS!!
i recommend using either a product similar to "goo gone" or even alcohol or soapy water, to lessen the adhesion of the glue. do this while applying heat with a hair dryer, again to soften and lessen the adhesive properties. indont recommend using the alcohol and hair dryer together however.
