ACTUALLY, they used to debadge them back in the day for the sleeper look. That way no one would know what they were running against. I have an uncle who still has his SS badges from back in the day. He doesn't have the car anymore though.
Of course now no one would debadge a classic because it would devalue them. It's almost too bad in a way because the spirit of the muscle car seems to have gotten lost along the way. Now they just show em instead of going out and having some real fun.

I dunno, I never liked the debadged look. It just looks like there's something missing.

yea, I saw a black G6 the other day with absolutely no badges on the back, only the little trunk key hole.....looked horrible IMO
The cobalts' don't look that bad but I wouldn't do it
