Such a minor difference, but which look do you prefer? Debadged bonnet, or debadged grille?

The grille slats have already been resprayed the same blue as the car (a very subtle change, but still noticeable close up) so the grille is already devalued. I'm unconcerned about value though, how it looks is paramount here. And i think i may debadge the bonnet when it goes in for spraying :( Then change the mini 1001 badge for a Mini 1000 one (to match the V5, :( )

yer debadge both and loose chrome strip ,buts thats just me i hate chrome stuff too common and usually chroming finish is toilet .


I can't lose the chrome strip as the gaps between the slats do not continue underneath, so it would look unfinished.
