Share Posted 01/01/13 12:26 PM Posted 01/01/13 12:26 PM Share Was driving through blackheath on the way back to Sydney today and saw a purple ba xr6 (not sure if turbo) drive past with led daytime running lights (E3 HSV style) and angel eyes headlights but the worst thing was instead of a ford badge on the front grill it had the mustang horse. I reckon its as bad if not worse than chev badges on a 6 cyl vn commo. Opinions? 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Share Posted 01/01/13 01:03 PM Posted 01/01/13 01:03 PM Share Yah some people spend big dollars only to have a car that looks like a 5 year old designed it. I love it. Makes our cars look so much better (to people who know what the hell they're looking at)... 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Share Posted 01/01/13 01:59 PM Posted 01/01/13 01:59 PM Share Kosij would have also seen the one in town with badges of Cobras, Mustangs and Falcons as well as the LED rubbish, all on the same car. Must be an ex-Late model camira driver. Link to post Share on other sites

Share Posted 04/01/13 01:44 AM Posted 04/01/13 01:44 AM Share They look alright on red FG's, but I think theyre terrible on all other colours. Not sure why though Link to post Share on other sites
Share Posted 04/01/13 01:53 AM Posted 04/01/13 01:53 AM Share The pony badge, FPV badge etc do not look right unless they are on a car that is built that way and yes rate with Chev badges on commodores Link to post Share on other sites

Share Posted 04/01/13 02:56 AM (edited) Posted 04/01/13 02:56 AM Share Not that I am a fan of the Chev badge on the Expensive Daewoo thing, at least in the USA, the Late model camira is sold as a Chev. Edited 04/01/13 02:58 AM by johno Link to post Share on other sites
Share Posted 04/01/13 04:25 AM Posted 04/01/13 04:25 AM Share No joke I have seen 2 VT commodores with xr8 bonnets in newcastle area. I had to look twice to make sure I wasnt seeing things. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Share Posted 04/01/13 06:07 AM Posted 04/01/13 06:07 AM Share Far out. Why would u ruin a monaro like that though. They are meant to be a "part of history" in a way. Link to post Share on other sites
