Well I went the other way. I did not like the looks of the red SS badges and changed them to white. Looks more traditional to me.

You people need to get off of your pedestals and not worry about how someone ELSE presents THEIR own car.

I have to agree with Scott. It's their car, why worry about what they want to do with their car

The only time a poser really bothers me is when it's being misrepresented during a sale.
Biggest offenders of this are folks that own an anniversary year & advertise it as an anniversary edition. Seems like every '78, '93 & '03 Corvette are advertised this way. |

Not upset or offended the guy added the SS badges. Just mentioning what I observed this morning. I'm just saying roll with what you got. I think a lot (not all) of the people who upgrade their badges are trying to fool someone. I had a buddy who had an infiniti g35 but changed all his infiniti emblems to Nissan to try to make it look like a V35 skyline which is from japan. Just didn't understand why he did that. They're both nice rides. I wasn't upset by that just thought it was weird. Yea you can do anything you want to anything you own. Just like I can say anything I want both of which are fine. Finally, I meant no disrespect to those who have upgraded badges on this site.

I never understood why this bothers people so much there are plenty of other things in this world to worry about than what someone has done to his or her car.

Its his car, he can do what he wants with it; but, he IS subject to ridicule when questioned about it. You know he is telling people that he has an SS. I'd start asking him about his car if I found myself looking at one of these. See how much he knows...betcha not much!
Kinda like taping fake Nike Swoosh onto some pro 500 kicks... that would be sweet!

Nothing wrong with adding CAMARO parts they were made for a CAMARO

I could understand the logic of de-badging the car to make it look like a V6, but not the other way around...besides, the exhaust note, regardless of what kind it is, would give it away to anyone who knows anything. But, hey, it's his car...let him have his fun.
