Why put badges on it which says it's something it isn't? Just seems pointless.

I say if you're willing to take it to the n'th degree by getting the car painted Gray, 99 spec body, get red seats, get BBS wheels, and basically get all the dash pieces, etc... Badges would complete the package, and having spent that much to make it a Spirit R, LHD, I'd think it was okay, just like one of those honda guys importing a type-r motor, and everything, I don't see the harm, it's the Basemodel Prelude's that have a Vtech Badge, and such nonsesnse that bugs me....

Badging a car for something it isn't is quite simply the height of ricism AND ignorance, and makes you appear like a total poser, a veritable buffoon, especially to enthusiasts and automobile cognoscenti.

In other words......


DON'T DO IT!
