To De-badge or not to De-badge! - That is the question?

[CupraTgirl]

Well after reading this post about an hour ago and realising i still had all my badges on I went straight out with some dental floss and hot water.
It now just has the cupra badge

Ha ha! I think its worth doing

Give up what?

To go badgeless

I took the badges off the back, The 'SEAT' and 'IBIZA' badges had to go straightaway.
I mean, the big S boot handle gives away the fact it is a SEAT!

The Cupra badge had to be taken off, as the black paint bits from the lettering it had come out on some of the letters, so it said something like C_P_A.

Instead of blagging I had some super-upgraded version of the Cupra...The 'CPA'. I just took that badge off as well.

I think black looks best with no badges, nice and smooth (with loud red interior lol)

Yeah exactly!

The Cupra badge on the back of mine says 'C__R_' and its not that old

I need to get a new one

Oh right ok

Sorry was being blonde there

 

[Ibiza Cupra]

Yeah but your only saying that because you dont have a Cupra badge on the back

So true!!!!!!!

lol!!!!!

I think Seat should of put Ibiza on the left hand side of the boot and Cupra on the right, would of made more sense IMO, think a few people have done that anyway.

But my car is totally badge-less

get your hairdryer out and take the badges off and black sticky door protectors (if not already done). Leave the cupra badge like majority has said

 

[SeanyK]

Yeah exactly!

Think its cause you wash it too much!

I honestly think its funnier without any badge at all, that way people probably think its a reppy Cupra, which is even funnier if they try and race.

Hhmm i think the Door Protectors look good on these as long as they have some Back to Black on them

Hi there just a quick message to you all i think your cars look great debadged with the large CUPRA in the centre of the boot but how easy is it to get the old badges off and have any of you had a problem with bits of rust around the back window. cheers

RUST!!!!! no i bloody hope not!!!!

And as for de badginging they are all stuck on so it's easy, Heat up, pull off and scrape the glue off. Wash it polish it and all should be good.

That was my thoughts exactly RUST. just around the window in that little channel :-(

Yeah it is a common problem for the Ibizas to get a little rust by the Back Window

There is a six yYear Anti Corrosion Warranty on the car and if you call SEAT they should be able to arrange a meeting about this! its up to the Inspector to decide if your car hasnt been resprayed before and if its covered uner this Warranty

Yeah but its not down to how dirty or clean it is kept! Its water that sits in the Rubber Seal between the Window and the Boot

I have a tiny bit of bubble rust on mine but they wouldnt cover it under Warranty so i have got to get it done when i can
