To stick or not to stick??

To stick or not to stick??
I just got my 2021 R-Dynamic P380 back from the piant shop after being side swiped by a pick-up.
They did a very nice job - looks as good as ever and I got great service from Geico..
My question is about the emblems . To deal with the rear quarter scratches the shop blended their paint across the rear "bumper".
That required them removing the stick-on emblems "R-Dynamic" and "P-380" for which they still awaiting delivery.
Having got the car back, I am thinking that it looks pretty damn good without the emblems.
What say you about leaving them off completely and saving them for the eventual next owner to decide upon way down the road?.
I think the rear looks cleaner without the stick-ons.

A rear end as gorgeous as that of the F Type should be bare, as God (and Ian Callum) intended.

The only difficult bit is the leaper because it has two holes and a dent under it, so best left in place.
For the other badges it's four easy steps:
1. Warm them up (to soften the glue) with a hairdryer.
2. Grab a roughly 40 cm length of dental floss or fishing line and use it to saw through the glue behind the badge.
3. Clean up the remaining glue residue with your solvent of choice, I use eucalyptus oil.
4. Polish and wax.

Just a wash, wax and clay bar. I have the clay bar done once a year and then just try to keep on top of it with hand washes. The clay bar really brings out the shine.
I've been debating ceramic coating, but I'm got too many expenses right now and the best price I've found has been about two grand.
