Since there is no 425hemi, I would call that more ricer. Maybe? Either way it's just weird to me. Also having it on both the hood and fender is just a major fail. It's a shame that stickers are so easy to install. If they weren't, there would be a lot less strange looking cars out there.

My SS is a 1LE poser. I've had quite a few people ask me if it's a 1LE even though it's clearly badged an SS.

1LEs are have SS badges too. You car looks nothing like a 1LE. You're good no posing there.

There seems to be a lot of confusion regarding 1LE badging. There is none from the factory. They are badged as SS's (white or red) depending on the presence or lack there of the RS package. Any 1LE badging is aftermarket or homemade.

I don't have a mail slot. I've had people tell me they can tell it's a V6 because of that. Guess I'm a sleeper poser

Right! However some, and I mean just some, 1LE guys really get offended if we modify our non 1LE cars to look like that. Which is why I clearly just refer to mine as a "SS" and keep it badged as such. Even though the 1LE is an option package, some get really offended with the wrapped hood and replica wheels.

For me, my spoiler is different, no diffuser, 1LE replicas (which are different when you see them side by side), and my hood wrap. I am taking mods I like from all models to make my car mine and different than the next AGM SS.

I get a kick of out of the poser thing... Up-badging a car is where anyone wil really get flamed. Beyond that, to me, just make it yours!

Looks fine to me. More to the 45th Anny than the stripes anyways.
