Badges

Postby Old EmmGee » Thu Feb 08, 2007 10:54 pm

I have an old 'V-spec' import with all the Eunos and V-spec badges, and was wondering about changing them to the standard Mazda alternatives.

I was wondering what the consensus was regarding staying original......

What ever floats your boat Old EmmGee.
Eunos badges, Mazda badges, no badges..........it's all up to your personal taste.

They all look good!

I was thinking of putting Mercedes badges on mine, but then, I wouldn't want people to think I'm a show-off. :mrgreen:

Feelings from another V-Special owner . . . stay original . . . we have a very individual version for Australia . . . why try to make it more common? :mrgreen: 8)

Yup - I'm starting to think that if I am going to keep it original, that should include the badges (although I have been asked what car it is, 'coz it looks like an MX-5 :roll:

Thanks for all the feedback! 8)
