Question de-badging the Fit?

Don't have my Fit yet as it's still in transport, but I like my cars de-badged and clean shaven.

I'm happy there are not door mouldings on the Fit but am planning on removing the Honda badges and the Fit logo. I did this to my Integra, but that involved having to JB Weld & bondo the holes left behind once the badges & mouldings were off.

Is the Fit & Honda badges just stuck on (please say yes) or are they actually emblems that will leave holes behind once removed?

I noticed that the 'jazz' emblems available as import are stick-on so hopefully the 'fit' ones are as well!

I love how the Fit badge looks on the rear of the car... Also lets people know what it is...

I'm planning on replacing the Fit badge with a Jazz badge.

The "H" badges are usually through the metal, with the holes like you describe. I don't know about the Fit badge... yet!!!

I will know next week!!

I would take off the Fit badge and mount it inside the car somewhere. I dont want people scratching my paint if they try to steal my Fit badge.

this place sells the badges, in two different styles.

Just go to the interior section. They have good pricing.

I've been seeing more and more imports that have been stripped of the logos, I kind of like it as I just see a really nice car. Transversly I don't like it becuase I want to know what kind of car it is, I can't identify by body type.
