That's a real hot button issue for me too.I debadge my BMWs also - cars and bikes. Thank goodness Kali dealers don't stick a dealer's badge on like the do in some states. I probably go postal.
I gave the car a full wash and wax this weekend. I was pondering the same question myself when I removed the "V8" emblems.I will post some pics tomorrow.
The V8 badge is a mystery to me as to why it is even there.
