Im not too sure about this one because I haven't replaced or de-badged mine, but when i was looking into it on my car, it looked a though you could take off the whole badge mount if you could get to it from inside.. im sure if you could, then that would look nice..
Mine is a 2004 model so im not sure if its different if yours is an older model ?
If anyone does know how to take off the whole badge mount thing then please let us know, as its not a job i want to undertake without knowing for sure if its gonna work..
