This reminded me of how I can tell a car by it's headlights and tail lights, well most cars. Hahahaha!
Personally, I prefer SOME badging, as it adds a little more character. There are some cars that can pull off being completely debadged, while there are others that don't look that good debadged. For example, my SS. I don't like the debadged look on it, and I actually added another emblem to it that wasn't stock. I like the look.
