    saxo_89 if you want to do it then do it as its your car, i personally like the 16v badges on my vts so they are staying on
    
    i saw a vtr with the "v" of the vts badge and and 8 from halfords stuck next to it to replace the 16 and it looked pretty good tbh.
    
    its better than putting a 16v badge on an 8v car which is what a lot of people do in my area

    Oh no wouldnt leave it chrome lol no way!
    
    Im not botherd about having an 8v tbh, its still ratrher quick, and a standard VTS isnt that much quicker until higher speeds, what i have found anyways...

    Firstly do what you think look right....people on here just like standard things... And i saw someone write... ''do you want everyone know you onli have 8v''
    People will always know when they look at your car and see the side badge and it says VTR ....
    
    So if you like them mate go for it.....and VTR wiv the right driver can beat a VTS...

    I think they will look good, seen a silver one a while back, think it was on here actually with black 8v badges, looked spot on

    Can't believe people are tellin you not to do it because its 8v. Who cares if its an 8v? Its better than him badging it up to be a v6 with nos. Do it mate, it'll look pretty smart and its an original idea tbh.

    go with the 8s, if you where going to badge up you may as well put 3litre TT badges on the back. it annoys me when people try pass their car off as something its not.
    
    get some pics for when its done
