Bageless????

yea i was... ah well... i guess i'm leaving the "M" badge on. maybe paint it black or something... my car is that dark gray/silver color...

anyone got pics of something like that?

I took an old credit card and gloo gone and just popped them off. I traded in my "3" for an Axela badge i bought at the OCC meet back in June. I used a brand called nightshade to paint my emblems black. and then covered it with 2 layers of clear coat. I hope this helps. Mine is light silver, not dark, but this should give you a rough idea.

The "M" badge has prongs as well as the "mazda" one.

did you sand it at all or just go in straight with the paint?

take a look i just used small plastic plugs for my hatch and it turned out nice from 50 feet away you cant even notice they are plugged, it looks totally shaved

just look at my album on my profile(idk why the pics are huge)

Nice did you just get some touch up paint for the plugs?

That's the closest thing that you can do to being badgeless without actually having it flush against the trunk.
You can use stuff like bondo, but it'll just eventually crack or fall out if you try to shave it.

yeah i used touch-up paint and the plugs work the best with double sided sticky tape
