Default Curious - How Many of Us Remove the Rear Panel Decals?

I have a black XLT Sport, on which I mounted 20" King Ranch wheels. Love the look. But I am torn about removing the "Sport" decals off the rear fender panels. That has gotten me looking at most every other F150 out there, noting that the higher end trucks don't seem to have the various decals (e.g., 4x4, Sport, etc.).

So, I thought I'd post the question and get some feedback as to how many others out there have removed their decals. Of course, I've had a couple of glasses of wine and may forget I posted this tomorrow, but for now really interested

I have a 2017 XLT Sport 4x4. I took the bed decals off about 2 weeks ago because I think they look terrible. I saw a video on youtube about how to do it. Take a hairdryer and some patience and it will cost you about 10 mins of your day to do both sides. I love the clean look now.

The sport decals were the very first thing I removed when I bought mine. That and the F150 badge on the tailgate.

I've got a black on black fx4 sport. I took the stickers off as soon as I got it in my driveway. It is already a flashy truck and I am a bit embarrassed by it.

I've had 7 different trucks that came with that math ? on the box, if anyone needs to know, 4X4=16. There, now you can remove that sticker, no need to drive around anymore and hope someone can answer the question.
All stickers and/or badges that won't leave a hole come off immediately.. The badges that are left, are only there to cover holes, and will be modified in some form or fashion to try and subdue the tackiness.
Oh, the Blue Ovals are next to the Holy Grail, they stay untouched, usually.

Same here. Better to get them off before the paint fades around them.
