the I-M-P-R-E-Z-A does look nice i admit.... just a little redundant when you have an "impreza" emblem below the wrx emblem.

some adhesive-removal products eat paint, like "goof-off", so be careful.

I'll bring some 3m rubbing compound to the meet so you can rub your trunk clear of any goo that you may miss. I got all the goo off but dirt would still lightly ghost the letters

If you don't debadge it, someone else will do it for you. I learned it the hard way.

My 'WRX' got debadged at my parents' place in SF, and their neighbor's WRX got the 6 star badge debadged by people too.
