forum, what do you think of fake badging?
Picture below is a 3.5L with a SRT8 badge (see exhaust)
how does this make you feel? does the money spent on a V6 justify this? |

Personally never would
Be proud of what you got, if you own one of these cars, let alone a new car in general you're doing better than most

I dislike these kind of false badges and actually find some of them pretty funny.
But I have no issue with someone who, for example, spends $8K on a twin turbo kit for their Camaro and then puts a 'TT' badge on the trunk lid, or any other non-OEM badge that truly represents what is in/on the car. I would probably do the same. But overall, I really don't care what someone else wants to do with their own property and money.

I think it should be deemed illegal and worthy of death by guillotine
In all seriousness, it is super lame. If you want a badge that holds a title higher than your own, pay for that next level trim. Otherwise, you's a poser
