So you've rushed over to see this hot naked female.......ok confession time, I've de-badged the X.  Now be honest with me, had I named the topic as .'De-badged X' would've you been looking in quite sooo eagerly?


Anyway, 15 minute job and she looks far better.  Clean flanks and even if I say so myself, nice tight arse.

I had those awfully nice chaps in Sarff Carolina do mine....at build.  And there is no way anyone can say an X6 has a tight arse!!  It makes my wife's look small...... :)) :))

Reminds of the email I got a few years back titled 'A cracking picture of Jordan'...

Does look good. Thinking of doing mine on the back (sides already done).

X5Sport - on the brave pills again?  :o

Debadged is the way to go. Mine was also off factory like that. Must save hugely on the mitt during washing, never mind losing about 2 kg when dropping that massive sentence.

Totally agree de badged is the only way.  When ever I've ordered new, always ticked the de badged option.  And like the X6, I always de badge second hand cars.  Just love the cleaner lines.

Looks like I'm the only/first dissenter then.  I prefer badged - if you got it, flaunt it (and I have a complete chapter on the back of my 6!!).

Wilko, you're just going to have to concede that Vermilion (firery) red is the best colour for the X6!  :pokey: :razz1: :fuelfire:

Still surprised that the E71 did not come with rubbing strips on the doors- not until X5Sport pointed it out to me at the last meet. Totally shaved look!

How did you get the badges off......want to take the side ones off mine as they arent straight and look a bit messy.

Checked with dulux and the colour isnt pink its Raspberry Bellini  :)  It also describes it as "A grown-up shade of pink which offers a contemporary, feminine look."  :)) :pokey:

Just used hair dryer to heat up the area and then used a cloth to get between the car and the badge.  Take your time, once the glue, foam softens up the badge comes away nice and easy.  Then cleaned the area with some polish.  Like I said, around fifteen minutes to do the lot.
