NO, NO.... you can debadge your car whenever you like. That glue doesn't cure or anything..... just heat it up and it'll get nice and soft for ya.

But the problem is that there may be fading. I doubt it happened so early though.

there shouldnt be any fading after a week. unless your car has been sitting in the lot for a year already.

Fadeing happens alot quicker than you think. I have marks that are almost unnoticiable and i tool mine off after about 4 months of having it.

I had no fading after 4 months (garaged).

When I took off the S U B A R U there was a haze on the paint that I couldn't wash or buff out using wax.

I finally got around to using the Maguires 3 step products.

I'm impressed with the Deep Crystal Paint Cleaner #1 and Deep Crystal Step 2 Polish. I used a paste wax to finish off the job.

Very impressed with the small scratches that completely disappeared.

Downside- I'll be spending more time looking for things to buff out of the paint and will eventually ned to buy a power buffer.

i debadged my subaru about a month ago, and its a little over 8 years old...no fading issues what so ever. The glue even came off without a problem, and this car has seen all types "New England" weather...So if mine had no fading issues, i highly doubt any rexes will have an issue either.
