What does changing the badges do? Does it make Commodore owners worry more at the lights? If I put 5L chrome ones on my 3.9 do you think it'll go quicker - or just look good.

well, I think its a bit rich calling yourself "svo xr6" when your car is nothing like either of them.

Just get a SVO lip spoiler, sway bars, short shifter, just something and then it might be justified.

I know I owned copies, but alteast they were believable.

Nothing personal, just the way it is.

Ferrari badges look better than Ford badges, does that mean I can get some?
