Debadging

This is because manufacturer badges are notorious for trapping wax, which is difficult to remove from small crevices.

Drivers are not being paid to advertise the brand, so some decide to remove this commercial aspect of the vehicle.

Debadging can also refer to the process of removing the car manufacturer's logo from the front grille.

[2] Some premium car manufacturers such as Porsche allow build-to-order vehicles to be configured with make and model badges customised, selectively retained, or removed altogether.
