I let the previous owner(s) decide.
I never add in badges nor take them off.
Only car I did remove them from (IIRC) was an XR3i which I had to remove the badges from because they were a pink / purple colour... although that will learn me to buy a hairdresser's car.
I did think about doing this on my previous E55 but I couldn't be bothered to actually do it in the end.
The obnoxious argument is an interesting one because you could argue those who are being snobby trying to show their car is better based on what they see on an incorrectly-badged faster car, are also being obnoxious, until you rub their noses in it...
