    What's everyone's thoughts on dabadging? From what I read, most people remove them. I personnaly like the badges, but it's impossible to wax and keep that area clean.

    RIP Lucy.
    She's gone but not forgotten.
    Use Turtle Wax Ice for wax. Doesn't dry white so you don't have to toothbrush it off all the emblems.
