    Default Badges on Miata

    I started to remove the MX5 badge on the back of my car and discovered the damn thing had studs inserted into holes.....

    I put the badge back on the front of mine after getting the stripes put on. The holes in the bumper showed up on the stripe and eventually a perfect hole showed up in the stripe. I guess the edges were sharp enough to put a perfect hole there.

    The back badge was pulled too but the holes don't show up through the stripe.

    I have to have a mind in order to make it up...

    My idea was to remove the back two Miata badges and leave the sc one....guess Mazda doesn't want their id's removed without owner misery.
