Same process as Mr Grimp has mentioned. The moment I arrived home from pickup at the dealer, it was de-badged in 15mins.

Hi again, can you de-badge the actually Skoda emblem or is that not stuck on like the others?

meanwhile - the Chinese r loading their locally built Superbs with more badges!!!

 

I’m wondering what a “TSI 380” is...

I´m unsure if the Skoda badge in the middle can be removed. But I´m sure about, that the car looks better with the badge in place IMHO

The Škoda winged arrow badge is nice. The other ones are a PITA, though, when you're trying to remove the wax or polish. Of course, there's probably some simple trick that I'm unaware of.

 

Um, of which I am unaware. And hopefully doesn't require power tools. Even the hair dryer removal trick is a problem for me.

I just used dental floss thread and 3M Citrus Based Adhesive Remover  No hairdryer or hot air gun.

 

(Also, when using a hot air gun you need to be very careful. you could easily damage the paint if it gets to hot. A hairdryer is a safer option)

You certainly can but I never did. There is a pressed metal recess the emblem sits in so it would look a little silly without the emblem.

Certainly does  !! 

you want aggresive front end......

 

Did you lower your superb JR ?

if so, does it have active suspension?

i'm looking to lower my Superb, but would rather keep my active suspension?  I thought maybe just manufacturing some new brackets to locate the height sensor lower, but wondered if there was another way?

sorry - that's not my actual car.  i should've mentioned that.
its a pic i found here on briskoda a while a ago and saved it - i don't remember which post/discussion it was.

 

as for lowering, i'm looking at doing it myself, at some point, with H&R springs (SKU 28784-1).

they are DCC friendly too.

these ones lower the car by 35mm.
if you have DCC, it lowers it only 10mm.  but it looks good, as per the pics.

 

 

 

 

here is a photoshop attempt of my actual car, when/if lowered......

I take it you're still well and truly in the honeymoon period?   What are your initial thoughts so far?
