Rebadged my 2022 to the E emblem badge. There are NO posts behind the emblem. It's just flat and stuck on with the expected industrial adhesive. Had to have the posts on the new emblem ground down with a Dremel.
Honestly, I think no badge on the white looks great, but I like the look of the E badge on Black. I think the no badge black almost dulls the look while the no badge white makes it pop more.
I think that's a valid observation. My 2019 GT2 was Panthera Metal (almost black) and I liked the E-Badge, but on the Ghost Grey having no badge upfront looked good to me. I used a black "Stinger" on the back.
The light color (white/grey/silver) Stingers have dark grills, dark (fake) hood vents and don't need a badge to catch the eye. On a black or dark grey the little E-Badge "pops"
