debadge! cleaner and more symmetrical haha.. but if you have to keep the letters, id leave it chrome, no point in making it glossy or matte - you'll just piss people off for trying to make out what it says at night.

Since you have the blackout theme on the car, I would do gloss black shadow emblems to match.

Here's my car badgeless for comparison. (And just an excuse for me to look at my car more )



I like the symmetry of the rear w/o badge. Just imo.

If you don't want to debadge, blacked out emblems looks cool.
