Without One badge ???

I'm keeping mine, but what does everyone else think on removing the One badge from your Mini?

I'm think about debadging my S... I want to change the side repeaters to Cooper black ones and just remove the Cooper S on the back...

What's the point in not having it? I'd keep it and be proud of it.

I had mine on for a year but removed it the other day to see what it would look like and I much prefer it. Also much easier to wax the rear now.

I've kept mine, mainly because i'm proud to be a One owner, however Hickster thought i should not have it as the car looks 'unbalanced'.

I have to say now i have my new one, i wonder if i should have debadged it as the new one drives so much like a Cooper!

You have an awesome car that most of us can only dream of owning. Don't mess with success. The population at large doesn't have any idea what a One is anyway. Just leave the badge where it belongs... Wear it loud & proud Babe.

I totally agree ! If I see a de-badged Mini, I would automatically assume it is a ONE anyway.

Mini E, I'm glad your ONE drives well, I've just ordered one myself (first Mini).

I'm going to be debadging my One as soon as I get it, simply because in my opinion it looks a lot nicer and more balanced badgeless
