do people generally find it more visually appealing when de-badged?

That would be a Saxo spoiler smoothed into the tailgate.... De-Badged looks better than having the badges on some cars, cos the badges don't come in a wide range of colours, so they might not go with the scheme of things on some cars. It also looks a lot smoother...

That's the reason I didn't debadge my rear. I know I have a 1.2 and don't srive around pretending it's anything else.
Plus I quite like the subtle chrome touches and "standard" look of them.
I did remove the GLS door badges to look smoother tho (and they were faded/scratched)

Think it makes to boot look very empty on standard bodywork cars, but suits kitted cars.

Bear in mind that when you do debadge it might leave a slightly different coloured paint underneath, but polish the area (the whole car even) and give it a little bit of t-cut and it looks a total dream.

Just did it to my 1.2 Swing (had to get shot of those gay looking badges) and it really does make the car look a lot smoother all round. Next comes the body coloured bumpers
