Debadging
i debadged mine i actually just pulled the cobalt bade off with my hands realy easy after sittting in the sun and the big ugly chevy i just use fishing line worked great takes some time and be careful when gettingthe glue off haha.....as for the one in the front i just taped it off gave ita quik sand and painted it black with auto scratch paint every one thats seen my car debadged likes it alot better... and about the being proud non sense when you debadge your car its not that ur ashamed ...if you change rims from the factory rims are u ashamed of the cobalt rims ??? no you jsut want to up grade ot and give it a custom look cuz im damn proud of my cobalt
I don't know Debadging doesn't look Custom to me. Unless you're gonna drop some money into getting some custom badges made to replace the factory ones. It just looks like you ripped the badges off to be "Cool" *Grabs an Apple* And CARlito says that trying to do stuff to look cool is Uncool. *Bites apple and spits the piece out*
Hmm I wonder if I could get some Autobot insignias. That would look HOT

Got the rear bowtie and cobalt badges off. Put a small nick in the paint from the opposite edge of where I was prying the bowtie
but not noticable, still prob have it fixed anyway. The goo gone worked pretty well but had to use a few times to get it all off and there's still some smudgy look on there.
Now to get the front bowtie off, but going to wait til I get home, have the long drive from my sis' in orlando back to key west tomorrow, ug. that drive is getting old, but at least now I have a new car to do it in!

Use a little rubbing alcohol (70% works good) and that will clean up the rest of that "smudgy look". Sometimes the glue will smear around and be a pain to get completely off depending on the type of adhesive. The alcohol will do the trick. Make sure you wax it afterwards, the goo gone and the alcohol will remove any present.
I took everything off. I live in southern california let the car sit all day then went out and pulled them all off by hand. i also don't have a ss.. so i had to take the side bumper strips off also. I think it makes the car look alot better.
i have a coupe. it is yellow and it looks just like the side of a ss without the larger wheels (which will be fixed soon) and without the ss badge. I think it looks alot better without the bumper strip sitting in the middle of the car.
