Black car logos

[Don H]

So my car logos turned up today ( took just over two weeks to arrive from Ali Express). The wife just doesn’t understand, what do you guys think

 

[MG Clive]

That's better

I prefer a matte finish, personally but I don't think I would change it to black anyway. I would like to have the car delivered without the MG and IM6 badges, so it was just left with the two symbols, front and rear.

Nice detail in black @Don H I like it. Are you also going to change the MG/IM6 lettering?
Do they come off easily? Not fancy putting a razor blade or flat head screw driver under there.

I've seen a de-badged nevis blue one on facebook, which I thought looked quite nice too.

Odd thing is, I just checked my behind (hah) and it doesn't even have the MG letters, just IM6 on the drivers side. Fine with me.

Your Dealer must have forgot to stick the MG badge on.

Much better. Looks great and Gloss Black is the one to go for. Definitely wants de-badging now.

I don't understand either. But it's a personal thing.

Should they have even done that though. I thought IM was just another brand under the SAIC group Like Lexus vs. Toyota. Or DS vs Citroen?

I’d like to change the MG/ IM6 lettering but can’t find it in black. If I can’t find them I will probably just remove the old ones.
The black logo just sticks on over the top of the original ones ( perfect fit).
I appreciate they are not to everyone’s liking - but I do !

You should be able to easily remove with a hairdryer and fishing wire. Buy a can of sticky remover to remove any last bits

Yep, WD40 works a treat, too.

I just carefully prised the MG logo off.

 

[Don H]

I think I might have to, can’t find black anywhere !

That is spot on. I love that it is gloss black like the area around the rear number plate. That looks class.

Nice one Don. Coincidentally mine arrived today and are on too.
Car is white, all trims are black so badges being silver looked weird.
By the way removing the MG logos is dead easy. Took me 5 minutes in total with the hairdryer and dental floss. Just some small bits of residue left which were easily removed with WD40.

Waiting for the mudguards now. It takes a proper beating there. Like my Tesla..
It will be just a matter of time for the first scratches or chips to appear...

Cheers Nik, hope you’re getting on well with the car. I did think about mudguards but was a little unsure how much they might reduce range ( you’ll have to let me know how you get on and if they change anything).
I have found black lettering now if I want to change the “mg-im6 “ but I think I’ll just remove them and perhaps add back the im6 in new year.
Have a good festive break !

I will post some photos when they arrive and after installation. Previous experience from the Tesla is that there is no impact on range.
They are definitely needed. White metal is exposed to mud and all the other crap that the wheels spin...
Have a lovely Christmas break too!
