Debadging question?!?!?!

I want to shave off my entire back, all 3 of the symbols, the mazda symbol, the mazda letteriing, the rx-8 lettering

Do anyof them leave holes, are they attached?

I tired search couldn't find anything...

So the "M" symbol and MAZDA lettering leaves no holes, and should be clean to remove?

Does anyone have a pic of a silver 8 with no "M" symbol or MAZDA lettering?

Mazda Leaves Holes - 2 and so does the emblem. RX8 only taped on
Best I could do.

all the emblems have holes except for the rx-8 logo, this has been discussed to death on here, you'll have to have a body-shop fill/blend the holes if you want it to look decent, the front bumper one also has 2 posts/holes, same deal, fill/blend. Probably going to run you a couple hundred bucks to do, but it definitely looks a lot better than having all that crap on your trunk.

I don't know whether to debage the rear completley, or just leave the M...I'm not taking off the front emblem...it just makes it look deserted and plain in the front...

What I decided to do. I want the rear to be clean looking. But I still want the front to look good. And I've seen it without the badge in the front and I don't like it.
