Default Debadge or black out

Should I debadge my ranger out black out the emblems even the ones on the tailgate. Or leave them? They are all stock. Do y'all think these 4x4 stickers will look good?

I think it'll look better replacing them with the newer ones, if that's not an option I'd black them out.

I've always been a fan of debadging, and removing all chrome. The biggest problem with debadging are the locating holes left behind. I refuse to get into body work, just haven't the time/place/tools/knowhow to do it right, So body shops are my only alternative, and that means $$$$$.
So, luckily for me, my Edge doesn't have that shiny stuff at all, except the fender badges, and the chrome shiny crap around the Ford ovals. The fender badges, I used black plastidip on, and am happy with that. The ovals I basically said screw it, and left them alone.
Now the stickers? In my book no, sell them, give them away, or burn them.
As you likely can tell, stickers and chrome are not my thing.

Black/murder is tacky on an Arizona Beige truck. At least to me.


The decal could look alright on it though.
