Can you remove the Sandy Sassing Nissan thingy?
Also, you are in need of an OPPO sticker.

I'm not sure how to go about removing it, its just a sticker rather than an actual emblem. I'll get an OPPO sticker eventually.

I hate dealer badges. Who in the heck actually thinks it's cool to slap one of those ugly things on a new car? I've even seen them on brand new luxury cars!!
If you have to, at least put them on the rear window. That's what one local Mercedes dealer does with its demos and loaners.
sefeing, actually bought an E46

Where did you get this? All I see are buttons and colorful ones on C&D's site?

That picture doesn't do it justice. My phone doesn't want to take good photos when the light is weird.

Like Carmax, who thought that was a good idea? There are tons of Youtube videos of how to get rid of them, you might want to check that out. I'd say that if they are going to advertise in some way, a licence plate frame would be optimal because you can always switch it out easily.

Honestly, once it's paid off, I would consider do that, but I'd dip the wheels orange instead of pink. Still flamboyant, but not as eye melting.

It actually wasn't too bad.

The dealer I got my smart from slapped a huge black disc of a dealer label on my tailgate (pictured, on the boot of this C300 and that E63 AMG). Thankfully, whoever applied it to my smart did a bad job at it, as it fell off all by itself less than 24 hours after I took delivery.
The crest looks awesome though, so I picked it up off the ground and stuck it onto my computer desk. Darn that thing holds tight...

Haha, When my old A4 was in the body shop I specifically requested for them to not plaster the old dealership badge on the ass end.
I just don't understand it, usually if you ask them to not put anything on they do it anyways.

I had a dealer sticker on my last car, and my current car had a sticker from the PO. I just peeled them off with my fingernails, and got rid of the glue stains with some rubbing alcohol. The sooner you take it off, the easier it will be. The sticker on my current car
was a PITA to get rid of as it had been there for ages. And as the paint ages differently under a sticker, you can still see a hint of the outlines if you know where exactly to look.

Thanks. I'll take it off today then, I've only had the car for a bit over a week (130 miles on it now) so like you said, the sooner the better. Is that a Honda City?

Honda CG or the British built Euro Accord in layman's terms. It was the first of their "Think globally, act locally cars" where they released a narrow Asian one, this one for Europe, and a full fat version for the US. This is what the US version of it looked like.
I am somewhat partial to the looks of the Euro version though. Way less boxy!

I grew up in West Yorkshire in the late '90s, so I should have known that. My Dad owned one of the Rover-Honda badge engineered vehicles.

I quite liked their take on the Civic/Concerto.
They even offered a Turbo version with some 200?? horsies. Like a British gentleman's Civic Si or something.
