Hi,

I think the look of being badgeless could appeal to me. But, as my car is now 8 years old, I won't remove it for fear that the paint (Guards Red) may have faded enough for it to be very noticeable (Red is generally considered to be one of the more easily faded colors). This despite the car being garaged it's entire life and generally having spent less time in direct sunlight than many others. I don't want to have to repaint an entire panel to achieve a match. This is something every years-old Boxster owner should consider before going badgeless...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
