how do you remove the badges on yoshimura carbon cans?

Put the cans on the opposite sides, the badge will be on the inside and not visible. You can drill out the rivets that hold them on, but it will be noticeable.

I have Yoshi's on mine, but I quite like the graphic

I have the Yoshi pipes also and I was looking at doing something like that but you could just paint them black.
It would still have the yoshi badge but not as noticeable. I think it would look cool

They use "glue" along with the rivet's,,,

Im undecided on mine. The only prob with spinning them is the springs that join to the y-pipe are on a partituclar side so you would have to mod them to or just leave unconnected.

I just left mine as is you get used to it.
As I said in the above post you could just paint them black but I would not take them off.
The other option would be to relocate the spring loops so the badge is on the inside but for me I just couldn't
Be bothered

Could you just switch the sleeves when you repack. Haven't seen them up close but would assume it's possible...

What you could do also is go to a hobby shop and buy a can of spray paint that they use for tinting the windows
on a radio controlled cars.
With this paint the Yoshi badge would look like it has dark tint over it. This is what I would do quick and easy!

I usually de-brand everything. It's the business I'm in but I don't see why I should go round advertising people's businesses for them when they don't pay me to do so.

All labels and badges will come off somehow. I'd drill out the rivets and remove the Yoshi plates. Any glue will clean off somehow with some sort of solvent. Depending on the size of the holes I would either fill them, put in some more pop rivets or best still source some small, black rubber grommets and plug them up, they will be very discreet even if you have to enlarge the holes to fit them.

Ya screw dem evil corporations... You made me pay for this shite and you have the pride to put your logo on it!? How dare you! Pay me bitches, cuz I'm da shite and you fookers owe me!

The guy I bought my Aprilia from actually put Akro stickers on Leo's cuz he hated Leo Vince. WTF? How can you hate a piece of metal and carbon fiber?

I like mine cuz they got the corporate deal and the flag of my beloved country... 2 4 1! What is that crazy-assed writing on there anyway? I don't know but it looks cool.

I drilled the rivets and peeled the labels off then used goo gone to take the glue off then put pop rivets in the holes.
