Do you guys put up with dealer badges???

[typemismatch]

I make them remove it.

I want them to understand that they made me unhappy by applying their advertising to my vehicle.

This isn't something you see very often in California. I would lose it if I showed up to get my CTR and it had a dealer badge on it. Do you guys that are more used to this put up with it? I'd tell them to pay me a marketing fee to do their advertising for them. I bought a Honda, not a Landmark.

Is this annoying or do you guys just pull these things off as soon as you get home? In Cali it's usually just the dealer license plate surround and that comes off as soon as I park it. I tell them to keep it to save money but they don't so it just goes in the trash.

I told my dealership that if it has a sticker, that it would be a deal breaker. I was told they don't even do that. He said they store upscale than that. Wouldn't want one a $100,000 car, why should a brand new Civic be any different.

Made my dealer remove it before I took delivery. ow and behold I see a chunk of paint missing below the Civic badge. Instead of touching it up they ordered me a new panel for my hatch painted from Honda and replaced it.

Mine had a badge from Honda of Denton. Pulled that thing off in the parking lot.

AYYYYYYYYY same! It came off so easily. Such a blessing over that David McDavid one

Didn’t get any dealer emblems, but did get license plate frame and keychains. What is annoying is when the dealership throws the entire OEM aftermarket accessories to the car and put on the front license plate holder.

why would you buy it if there was a dealer badge on it?

the answer:

NO. unless they sell less than msrp and pay for the removal and any damage done by their badging.

Did you buy that Type R they had?

My dealer was cool about it. I told them I would leave the plate surround for a while but no way was I letting them slap a decal on it. Unfortunately we picked up my wife's new SUV recently and forgot about it. Yup, big ugly decal on the tailgate. I guess I'll peel it off this weekend... uugghhh

Nope. I went with a humble EX hatch. I needed a long term daily driver that wouldn't get me into too much trouble
