Removed the GLA 45 and AMG emblems, blacked out the star, blackout chrome strip between lights. Reduce the clutter.

You missed the opportunity for the perfect title, "Badges? We don't need no stinking badges!!" (If you ever saw that movie or, any of the hundred references to it in other movies;;.

Does the rear emblem have pins? Or can it be removed like the other badges.

I left the Mercedes emblem on the rear, blacked it out, I didn't want to mess with it.
