I dunno. I always people who debadge their cars are embarrassed to own it.
I doubt that, at least in the majority of cases. Somebody who takes the trouble to debadge is most likely someone who cares a lot about how their car looks (whether or not anyone else might approve of their design choice) and probably wouldn't buy one they didn't want.

I, like many other early Ioniq5 owners, removed the large hood and trunk H logos (some just because they were big ugly cheap chrome thingies, unlike the more recent improved satin-y ones) and replaced them with the H Morse code, same as Hyundai themselves did on the steering wheel.

I have a Model Y and a Model 3 and debadged both. Not due to embarrassment but due to cleanliness and application of ceramic coating. Its really difficult to apply with lettering. Also, when washing, its difficult to get into the lettering.

But, I dont know if I want to debadge the R2 yet. I plan on wrapping it, so a decision will need to be made before that happens.
