No issues with grinding the badge holder away but you'd have to smooth down the whole manifold otherwise it would look silly.

The badges come off and why not its different. I've rubbed down the whole thing its as smooth as hell. So if I grinde that back and polish that up to match it will look sweet.

won't be any easy job to get the curve of the manifold with a grinder end, will get flat spots on the curve if your not carefull.

I took all the mould lines out of it by hand with different grade papers took weeks. I was going to dremmel it off and the make sure its level and smoothed off with grit again. Then off to the powder coaters
