Default Curious what everyone does...

Do most of you guys leave the little square GM badge that is just in front of the rear fender, down by the bottom of the door, on your car, or do the majority of people take it off?

First thing I did was to remove it. Thought it looked tacky.

Its two free sample chicklets given to you by GM.




Take them off. 2009 was the last year for them.

Used dental floss to remove them & cleaned a small amount of residue off with Goo-be-gone stuff.

If you remove them, then how will people know that your car is a factory freak (30 HP more then everyone else's)?

I left 'em in place, because they are part of the "story" surrounding my car:

Car was built before the bankruptcy, I bought it new during the bankruptcy, and it continues to give miles of smiles after the bankruptcy is over.
