Debadge MG4?

[Misterm2024]

Hi,

Has anyone debadged their MG4? If so, can you share photos? Especially if you have Camden Grey

I'm collecting my MG4 tomorrow or Thursday and getting it ceramic coated right after collection, and I'm trying to decide what to do about the badge, as I'm not a big fan. I know I can cover it with a black stick-on badge. My thought is that the ceramic coat will be easier to apply if they remove the badge first.

Thanks,
Mr. M

Do it, it will look better and just a tad easier to clean. Only had mine just over a week. But gonna do mine as soon as i get chance. ??

Yes!

I did mine and it looks a lot cleaner,

It’s due a wash but I’ll try and get some pictures over ?

Just added debadging to my ceramic coating job, as I've just been told the company currently has a 20% discount this week
Why not let a professional do it essentially for free... kind of.

Pay attention on debadging: the badge is so well glued, that you'll have to destroy it to take it off.
Even by heating it, it will be damaged when you pull it.
I removed mine and finally I replaced it by a new one, that I painted in black before. This because I do not like the plastic black badge cover.
The ceramic coat will be great

I presume you are talking about the front badge ? .... if so just beware that there is also a recess where the badge goes so you will be left with indented body work where the badge goes. Someone did some photoshops a while ago with the badge removed.

I clearly need to see some photo's. I can't find any on the forum :/

You can see it on this photo around the edges if you click on it to zoom in more. You'll be left with a blank Octagaon indent if you debadge.

Wow, thanks for sharing. That is quite a recess hey. Oh well, looks like I'll be sticking the black cover over it then.

Thought he was talking about the rear badges. Defo remove them. Personally wouldn't remove the front badge. Defo Black badge it though. ??

On the Trophy, the rear badge is inside the spoiler.
