Managed to get the "Coupe" badge of the back now and I wanted to put the fiat badge on but now its off i think it looks nice without.


.. But I kinda want the Fiat badge on too (Plus worried about putting it on wonky)

Argh i cant decide! Who has taken theirs off?

mine is debadged at the back.

i think it looks better debadged as the design is too good to have a badge stuck on it which IMHO adds nothing special to the car.

but leave the front one on- to show that you are proud its a Fiat laugh

Yeh, my speed red was debadged. Looked good.

I think i'll probably leave it to how it is for now. No harm i think i prefer it! laugh


Never take the badge of the front though! Looks horrid the car looks nude!!!

Uhm let me think..................Oh yes ON .
I understand those who like the clean de-badge look though.
It's just that the factory fresh look on the outside does it for me. smile
I might have mentioned that before ...a couple of times !!
I'll get my coat. coat

i must admit, i prefer to see a badge on the back, and on the front for that matter.

however, the standard fiat ones fade and look a bit dated, i bought mine off ebay (£10 ish) and i really like it.

available in black or red

I'm about to buy one of those black ones.
I prefer the look of the rear without a badge but much to my disappointment when I took the faded fiat badge off the back of my new couple i found out that only one end had a sticky pad and the other had been glued!! So it took some paint off leaving me now having to get another badge to cover the mess over!!

i wish they'd fitted the red ones front and back on the plus - i think it brings out the rest of the red on the car, but will keep mine standard for now...although was almost tempted by the fiat rear badge with the italian flag under it.... rolleyes

Mine has no Fiat badges front or rear smile

Rear definately looks better without.

I had the opportunity to debadge the front after I crashed it, so I did. If I hadn't crashed it and the original bonnet was still on it, then it would still have it's badge smile

This thread is making me kind of uncomfortable. Here we all are on a specialist Fiat Coupe forum but we are happy to remove the badges which identify our cars and which define our cars.

My position is that anyone who removes the identinity of their car is not fit to be on this forum. Buy a Focus if you want to be anonymous.

I have a FastFiat sticker, in the Fiat badge font, in my rear window, if that helps?

Also have black Fiat centre caps in the wheel centre.

So, not completely debadged. Can I stay? laugh

I'm with you on this one Alan, but slightly off topic, debadging is better than adding extra badges, the pretendy Ferrari ones are the worst in my opinion. rolleyes


I'm an old git & happy with it,most of the time

that's a bit harsh.

Mine never had a rear badge on but I'm very proud to have the front badge on mine.

Only the other day some bloke noticed my car was a Fiat and was quite shocked they made cars like it, he said "you don't expect fiat to make cars like that they only make little cars, I bet that's a fast car"

So yes I'm very proud it's a Fiat

focus's have badges too. i don't understand why you're so anal about this alan - everyone knows your preference for unmolested cars and although i agree it's others choice - and to suggest they're not fit for the forum is, frankly, bonkers imo.... crazy

I still have my Nouvo round one.. For factory look and to show off "FIAT - GET IT!!!"
But lately I've been thinking of removing it. It becomes a bit of a "nose" on the rear..
