Default just wondering....

This is a noob question but i was looking on the net and i couldnt find anything about it so any ways.. I see that some eb xr8s will have tickford badges and some dont so i was just wondering why is that did people just buy the badges and slap em on or did some eb xr8s come tickford enhanced??? im just asking cause my car has tickford badges all over or is it just a standard thing that came out with the cars.

Thanx

the tickford ones got some special heads,cam shaft,suspension,,interior and a few other bits,,the normal way to tell is there should be a T on the front of the head,,but these days you never know because people change heads and motors around.

I'm fairly sure he's talking V8's mate not i6 so there is no real difference from GLi V8 to XR8
Same power outputs only different exhaust for XR
I believe EB's didn't have the Tickford badges or the quad light front as this was given to ED to distinguish the sports model from the base model
