LOL. No I took them off, I ordered a bB badge for the front till I find a grille I like. I wish I could find an OEM looking grille just w/o the holes. Funny you said that though, the manager at the dealer freaked out when I brought the car in for paint protection the day after I bought it and all the guages were gone. He thought one of his employees had stolen them.

Are the badges difficult to remove? I wouldn't mind at least taking the ones off my hatch. I'm with you on the grill- it'd look good plain. Another minor thing that bugs me is the aluminum for the a/c clearly visible through the lower grill. Wish they would've hit it with some flat black from the factory.

Yeah I thought about taking the bumper off and hitting that with the spray can.

The badges arent hard, I used a blow dryer and dental floss, then wiped off the remainder glue with PB Blaster (WD40 works too). The front is just a clip
