Just need to find out is the Mazda logo double sided tape on to the body?

Or is there any holes on the body in which the logo is inserted into it?

Cos I'm thinking of removing all the mazda logo and wordings on the car if they are double side taped on the body.

unfortunately, all the logos are secured by 2 pins on the underside of the body, meaning there are 2 holes......

to debadge the whole car, u need to mend the holes and respray.... if not, mine wld have been debadged the 1st day i got my car...... :D

Just to confirm

Only the word "RX 8" is tape

The rest of them are all pin into the body.

The badge cost S$30. Cheaper than filling up the hole and respray. But my front panel is scratched badly and since i am respraying i debadged it. The rear scratch is not so obvious so just used some paint to touch up and put the badge on.

Dunno why they bother to do such things. Hope these guys get caught one day. Let them be charged with vandalism(got mandatory canning)

Heh heh... yah man. MANDATORY canning that even US President oso can't get you out of! Sometimes I wonder if these vandals even know the consequences of their actions. Carry a "convict" label the rest of their life and not to mention backside open flower. Bro, hope your 8 has a speedy recovery...
