Badge or Emblem Removal
WHAT IT DOES
This upgrade is all about identity. Either stripping it away for a cleaner, more mysterious vibe, or swapping out factory emblems for something that better fits your build. Whether you want to debadge the entire vehicle or just replace the OEM badges with custom ones (blackout, retro, or performance-inspired), we’ve got the tools and know-how to do it cleanly and professionally. You won’t have to worry about pry marks, residue, or regrets. It will look like the factory completed the work.
WHY IT MATTERS
Badging tells people what you drive. But removing or replacing it? That tells people who you are. Here’s why that matters:
Sleek, stealthy look: Removing badges smooths out body lines and gets rid of visual clutter
Uniqueness: Replacing factory emblems with custom or color-matched ones instantly separates your ride from the thousands of stock versions on the road
Performance builds: Deleting brand logos and trim badges adds to the “sleeper” or purpose-built look
Easy reversibility: The right tools and techniques let us do it without damaging the paint or leaving ghosting behind
Whether you’re going for a factory-delete vibe, a ghosted stealth look, or just want your own version of “what model is that?”, we make the process quick, easy, and painless.
WHAT TO WATCH OUT FOR
Thinking about grabbing a heat gun and fishing line to debadge your vehicle in the driveway? Be careful — here’s what can go wrong:
Paint Damage: One wrong pull or a cheap tool can peel clear coat or chip paint, especially on older or sun-faded finishes
Ghosting: Even if the badge comes off, UV exposure may have baked a shadow into the paint underneath — and no, buffing alone doesn’t always fix it
Adhesive Residue: That gunky double-sided tape is no joke — and scraping it off with a credit card won’t cut it (but it will scratch your paint)
Broken Alignment Pins: Some emblems aren’t just stuck on — they’re pinned through the body. Yank without knowing and you’ll crack the badge... or worse, leave a hole
If you want this job done right, hire professionals. We use heat control, paint-safe adhesive removers, and detailing finesse that will leave no trace.
