I think the slight indentation looks great, like a ghosting of the wings. I thought about putting something there, but I like the look - the rear end to me is sleek and clean.

I wetsanded every lense on the car 5+ times and sprayed 6 coats of tinted clear on them at my friends shop, they are smooth as glass and look amazing in person. I also did a small flat black strip around the outside of the tails to make them pop with the new tint.

I am not about to advertise for a company that has done NOTHING for us in regards to having dealers informed enough to service our cars and parts available for said fixes. I have put thousands into making the car look and perform the way I want it to, and I am not about to give Chrysler credit for that either. Most importantly, it is not really a chrysler.

I think the debadged look is subtle and classy - no need for a 12" wide chrome wing to tell everyone what type of car it is.

And lastly, as Pooly said, I have had literally hundreds of people over the last few years with my XFs ask me, 'What is it?'

It is all about making yourself happy, if you like the letters and badging on the rear of your car, keep it there...
