    Hi Bert!

    You may already have the answer to de-badging. But it is easy.....I used a hand held hair dryer. Went an "edge" and "corner" of one of the letters and gently started peeling using my fingernail. Then once I got enough to get a good grip started peeling keeping the dryer blowing hot air between the paint and emblem. Its pretty easy. You could probably wait til summer and dispense with the hair dryer. Its kinda like real stiff duck tape. It'll leave a little shadow behind that you can remove with a mild auto polish...

    I bought the badge off the front of an axiom, says isuzu and put it on my rear door, opposite of the tod, so it balances it out and still says isuzu, but not obnoxiously

    When you want to post a picture from your gallery, you will now notice a little feature shown in the details of your photo.
    You should see a title saying "UBB Code", this contains an image tag looking like this:

    [img ]http://www.vehicross.info/gallery/data/500/1232back.jpg[/img ]

    All you need to do is copy this line and paste it into your post where ever you want the photo to show up.
    No more right clicking on the photo to obtain it's URL.

    Here is the final product... I just took the picture last week, but the badge has been on for a while now.



    Let me know what you all think!

    When my VX is paid off I plan on going for the luxury sport look, I plan on removing the rear ISUZU badge and also the half moon, after filling the half moon hole and painting the whole VX black I'm going spell out V__E__H__I__C__R__O__S__S in small (1 to 1 1/2 inches) chrome letters (shouldn't be too hard to find) in an ARCH that follows the form of the spare-tire.....like the older Continentals. Good luck with whatever you choose.
    It's the love child of a Hummer & SLK, uniquely rugged & SLeeK
