It all depends what you want to do, but one thing you should DEFINITELY do is take off the GM symbols on the side... I would take everything off except for the bowtie in the back, because I think the trunk looks weird with nothing on it, because the keyhole sticks out too much.

Just about every car looks that much better without the badges. That's just my opinion.

I was also really up in the air about debadging mine, but after I did it just made me that much happier with the car, but it just comes down to preference.... I own a g5, but all the same platform... actually it was funny, at NOPI New England a few people had to come up and ask what sorta car it was, was it the sc model (which Pontiac never produced), etc....
Personally I've had nothing but good feedback

Yea Emperor it done the same to mine when I removed the dealer badge. I haven't tried anything to fix it as it isn't very noticeable, but I'm sure it's nothing a little buffing won't get rid of.

Sleeper SS x2. No one ever sees it coming from a de-badged, de-winged SS S/C. Last track day I went to I ran a MazdaSpeed Protege, driver thought he had the race in the bag, afterward he was asking me what that whine coming from my car was . Of course I'm stage 2 also, so I have some extra sleeper goodness hiding under my hood.

I wing swapped for the low pro, and am fully de-badged except for the GM logos and the "COBALT" emblem on the trunk lid. Keeps people guessing whether I'm an SS N/A, the SS S/C or just an LT coupe that opted to slap on the 18's and the SS body kit. I highly recommend it if you have an issue in your area of every ricer dropping a gear when they roll by. I had that issue for a month, it went away almost instantly after I de-badged and wing swapped.

I think the best way to debag is a bottle of crown royal and a hammer.
