DE-badging

[Bill55]

I do not think stick on "numbers or letters" is a serious attempt at branding. I love the BMW roundel, Corvette and Ferrari crests, the Chevy bowtie, and many more. I hate stick on "crap".

I took the "Air" and "Lucid" plastic badging off the rear of the car. See image.

Got it. I've done that with all of my previous cars, but decided to leave the "Air, Dream Edition P" on this one.

I left it on longer than I normally do, but in the end, If I don't think design effort went into it, I am happy to remove. I have not purchased vehicles that went over board and stamped horrible ugly designs into the sheet metal. In some ways I prefer the stick on so I have an option.

Have you removed the “M5” stick-on badge too? Gorgeous red by the way….

That's my wife's 2015 Lexus 350GS. Lexus has great paint. I have remove M5, 911 Turbo S, SL65 AMG, GTR, Z06 stick on. B7 Alpina. On the front "LUCID" is nicely integrated into the front trim, I like the "LUCID" center caps. I just don't like stick on letters/numbers.

Now no one will know what you are driving. My Z8 gets the same response “ what BMW is that ? “ since it came from the factory with no Z8 badging and no “M “ badging either

Oh they know, the amount of people I've seen who take pictures of the car is crazy. In parking lots, while driving at intersections, or on the freeway. My wife said the other day that it was super creepy because there were 2 cases where a car sped up rolled down their window and took a video of the car as we drove past them.

The license plate frame from Lucid is pretty nice. I kept that, so the is still one “Lucid” on the back.
