Looks good, but is there any way you can shrink the pic, i mean a third of the car fills my screen.
Can you give a few basic steps as to what you did? A short How-To if you will? I know there is one in the forums, but I like to get different points of view...thanks!
Looks great by the way

Step 1. Heat the letters with a hair dryer for about 30-45 seconds.
Step 2. Took dental floss and ran it under the letters until removed. (If very hard, heat a little more. Be carful with the amount of heat so you don't hurt the paint.)
Step 3. Gently (so you don't scratch the paint/clearcoat) remove foam that is there with finger nail and then apply some "GOO GONE" (bought the spray gell from the super market for 5 bucks) or other type of adhesive remover, and let it sit for about 1 minute or so. (Letting it sit makes it work better because it needs time to lossen the gunk.)
Step 4. Whipe off residue and clean with soap and water. (I claybared mine once I wiped the stuff off.
Step 5. Wax the area you just removed the letters from. (I use Meguires Gold Class)
Step 6. Stand back and admire your new smooth and shiny booty. (and take pics to show it off to everyone here).

good job on the debadging[thumb]
I was a little confused cause all I saw was your garage door's reflection.
I think it looks really clean. My husband has decided he doesn't want me to TOUCH any of the badges on his ST[] But I'm still trying to talk him into it.........

i think you gotta get rid of the plate frame advertising the dealer to get it even more clean.
