That's personal preference my friend. It does create a clean look though. When my RX7 is resparyaed I'm going to have the emblems airbrushed on. This way when it is clearcoated they will be under the clear. Makes it alot easier to wax!

I like the SRT6 badge so it's a tough one....

Maybe remove everything else??

I Agree I will leave the SRT badge's alone but, the Chrysler and the big crossfire (both on the back) I think will have to go!

I'm thinking of doing the same thing. Although I like that how that bigger SRT6 badge that Needswings sells looks by itself in the back.

Definitely personal preference there. I agree no badges creates a smoother look, but I prefer to leave my badging on, as most of the time I feel the factory did a good job.

I do like the idea of everything but the SRT6 badging. That in my opinion would probably be the best route. IMHO

I did the same thing. I removed it from my N/A and when I got a SRT6, I removed the Crossfire letters and replaced the SRT6 with the larger one.

Now that, done by a good airbrush artist is sweet. I would love to have that when I am waxing.

When I bought my SRT it was already debadged and I didn't even know it until I saw pictures here with the badges on.

I actually like the fact that it is debadged cuz no one knows what kind of car it is. Comes in handy when they TRY to run me!

As have said others, removing the badges is a taste question. Though I see the value in removing
them, I have chosen to leave mine on. I do like the cleaner look of the debadged hatch, but I also
like the way the Crossfire logo looks. However, I may soon be removing at least the Crossfire name
from the hatch, as the 'C' has become a bit loose and may fall off sometime in the not too distant
future. Should that happen, I'll remove the rest of the letters. Either way, I think that both views,
badged or removed) look equally good. Just my $0.02...

Yes, that's why I haven't debadged my Crossfire and have no plans to do so. My other vehicles have been/are debadged, but none had such a nice looking badge on them!

I agree, the Crossfire lettering looks classy and is unique.

If anyone has removed their SRT6 badge and is interested in selling it,
please let me know.

My SRT6 was missing the letters and SRT6 badge. I was fortunate to get the badge from a member but I'll have to buy the letters next year. Saw the note about free letters....but they come spaced on a tape that makes installation exact and I'm too OCD to do them free-hand.

Don't remove them yet. Get used to them for a while and make the decision later.

I personally love having the SRT6 badge because I actually had some folks approach me saying that they've never seen an SRT6 in person! I love that feeling of telling them about our cars.

I am all for removing them. Looks more menacing. I like Blkfin's SRT badge better than stock as well.
