I've been thinking about debadging, however mine's a regular Leon. Is it easy to remove the LEON logo? And if I ever want to stick it back, is it do-able without it ever falling from water or something?

I think you heat it up with a hair dryer to make the adhesive soft then pull off. Use a adhesive remover (like autoglym intensive tar remover) to clear the marks. Sticking it back should be a case of using similar sticky foam pads which are easily purchased online.

Dental Floss works well for removing the letters. Did mine quite quickly using it then polished to get the residue off. If I ever want to re-badge it I'll just buy new letters.

Today I discovered a top warm-weather tip - when leaning into the boot while wearing shorts, do NOT let your shin rest against the exhaust tip after you have been driving... :censored:

Only a small burn and only myself to blame!

I had to go to the Seat garage and get a confirmation that my car hasn't been lowered as my insurance company decided to take £100 off me for a "unclaimed modification". No idea where they got that from.

Very bizarre, not heard this happen before!
