DeBadging - What's to point?
So why do you want to de-badge a Camry? I just installed a V6 emblem 'cause I want to brag! Mercedes drivers often do this on the older MBs, I guess to be a sleeper packing a 450 or 600 motor or to not brag on the luxury level, I don't know. But a Toyota? Buy a Lexus if you want to compete!
Fire suit on, let 'er rip!

Yeah..some debadge typically just to keep the car cleaner, not to hide the fact that they have a V6 or not.
