Default Badge or Badgeless

With my new Tiger Shark body kit do you think I should put back on my the cross flags Front/Rear or leave them off?
Need to edit this, Yes meaning I keep them...

Since they are painting your bumper anyway, have the emblem hand painted on and then have it cleared over. looks sweet

I second that. The nose especially looks so much cleaner without the flags. I'm a half inch from getting the TS kit for mine, after seeing all these sharp conversions getting posted by members, and I will definitely leave them off.

Keep them on.

It's not like the emblem looks like a Ford emblem where it is a generic corporate thing...the emblem for our cars are exclusive to the Corvette...be proud of what it represents.
