Application of some heat with hairdrier against lettering can help as well.

Or leave it out in the sun on one of our hotter days.

If you are at the cruise I can show you and it will take you no more than 3 minutes to do it. I can even bring you some braid if you dont have any.

EDIT: if you are talking about the oval subaru badge, then thats a different story altogether.

Some people also use eucalyptus oil to fully get the residue off, not too sure how it works, goo remover should be able to work as well.

Will be left with 2 holes in the boot, I'll try and find the pics if you like of the impreza bumper that I had put on my car.

Yeah, if you want less hassles stick to an 8.5" rim - I just wanted to fill the guards a bit.....

EDIT: Once you take the badge off, you can give it a quick polish if there is any issues. Like I said, if you are at the cruise Sunday I can help you do it in like 2 or 3 minutes.

I like it.

Well I jacked the old girl up and put her on stands to pull out the cat back section and replace it with the Ultrex exhaust I have in my spare room. Unfortunately they didn't join all that well, so instead I just replaced the mufflers for now as that was the least painful and easiest thing to do - suprisingly good sound. So at least I have a little bark to match my new aggressive look.

Snorkus delete will also give you more low end growl, while allowing you to hear the turbo spool up.

Just an idea
