call me crazy but im not real big on the badgeless garnish. it just looks kinda empty to me. im all about having a badgeless grill. i painted my badges black a long time ago and the rear looked good but the front didnt look quite right. it looks better on the 08 grill than the honeycomb grilles.

I think it looks good. I agree, badgeless looks empty to me.

badge looks good, now make a rear cf emblem insert

if the front bugs, you get an aftermarket grill like vrd and go badgeless,

or even better paint the vrd grill flat black ;) thats what I did and it looks fantastic.

now the question is how do you get the badge off? is it just like the tC emblem using fish line? I'm talking about the back garnish emblem.

Yup! Makes them easy to take on and replace! There are two little i guess you could call them rods that kinda hold the emblem in place but they do not affect anything when your taking them off.
