Debadging.

[TommyC]

I did think about spelling out 'Fabia vRS' using different style letters' date=' I like Ford's latest badging font for example. But I didn't know if I could get all the letters I needed and thought it might come across as a bit c-h-a-v ? Hmmm :rubchin:

You'd be able to get R S no probs but as for the V.... not sure.

What abaout VW badges?? Find a Sharran and you'd be sorted!!

(I know this might sound a bit s-h-i-t/c-h-a-v but what about Vauxhall badges?? Find a Corsa and again you'd have the required letters.....)

It mighy be worth your while going round with a digi camera and spending a bit of time on Photo-shop.......??

I have taken off the Fabia and vRS badges, and think it looks MUCH better and cleaner for it. Also easier to clean.

I love the Skoda badge though, infact I'd quite like a 3ft decal in silver or white to put across the sides!

Can I just ask how people get their badges off? I've removed the comfort ones on the side and found it a right pain in the ****... the damn glue left behind. Any tips?

Bit of heat from a hairdryer, then gently prised them off with an old credit card. Then used some WD40 to remove any glue residue. That should be you sorted

WD40 I tried the cleybar stuff to rub it off... will try this next time, cheers

I used a bit of dental floss to 'saw' them off, a doddle.

[PJGoose69]

But the question is, how do you re-stick them back on?? :confused:

Goose

Or more to the point what can i cover the rear 2 holes with?

[Wardy]

There's only holes left when you remove the Skoda badge - the Fabia and vRS badges are stuck on with adhesive.

Only option I can see if you're removing the Skoda badge is to fill it with primer, smooth and repaint :eek:

For the re-application of the other badges, just buy some new adhesive. B&Q or similar should stock something suitable.

Not tried it, but how about using NO MORE NAILS, to stick it back on.

i removed the OCTAVIA badge from the back of my car today.

I really like it without it.

What do you lot think?

I also got rid of the "elegance" badges from the side of the front wings.

[ChrisRs]

I love folks knowing that they are BEHIND;) a Skoda Fabia VRS diesel

Thats part of the fun.

I agree!! So I've put a TDi badge bottom left corner of the boot

[walkie]

Use halfords 'trimming tape' to re-apply badges, works a treat

I think that looks good - but personally I'd take the '20V' off as well, to just leave the Skoda badge.

Got rid of my horrid Octavia badge at the weekend. Took about 15 mins all-in. Used dental floss, and then WD40 and elbow grease. Looks sooo much better now with just the vRS badge.

[lozgti]

Looks good.Floss and WD-40 coming out at the weekend.

[i ross]

I should think it will reverse so much faster ! without the badges .so lets get them off .

[i ross]

the badges that is.

It looks crap so took it off

[ScoobyChris]

I took off the Fabia badge and the 1.9 TDI badge and left the Skoda one on. I think it looks better (as it's even on each side) and it's much less fussy to clean Undecided whether to do the same on the Mondeo..... :confused:
