I've looked all over the site for a post about debadging a Cinqu SX.

Which badges have holes in? Or are they all stuck on?
I believe the rears are stuck on, but im uneasy about the front..

the front ones got a hole and a little sunken bit

and im pretty sure the rears are just stuck one, as the boot lids the same as the sporting, which are always being debadged :rolleyes:

The rears are stuck on there is a sticky on debadging in one of the sections.

You need to buy a fanbelt and a haynes for the other bit ;)

EDIT someone has deleted the debadging sticky

All the rear badges are stuck on. Heat them up with a hairdryer a bit first, then use an old credit card or fishing line to remove badges, clean off any adhesive left behind, T-Cut to blend in paintwork.

Front one, IIRC, is held with with 2 pegs and a nut/bolt arrangement. There is also a circular shaped depression behind the badge that would have to be filled (y)

As I found out the other day, you don't even need t-cut to blend it in. I used tar remover (allegedly safe for paintwork) to get the sticky off (with lots of elbow grease) and the cloth was red by the time I was finished. That never happened with the Brava!
