   ive got a mango furio at the moment and its lowered with VTR wheels, was just wondering whether its a good or gay thing to do if i was to remove my saxo door badges and replace with VTR ones! with it being mango people will know its not a VTR/S however for all they know it could have been upgraded to one, they wont know whats under the bonnet lol so do i do it or not??

   Aye, badging up is a bit gay i reckon. Quite a few mates have said to me to put VTS rims on it and badge it up, but its pointless when the lumps no where near vts powah

   You could badge up if you wanted but peronally I think its abit of a waste of time and money, No point in replacing something that isnt broke. But if it makes you happy then go for it mate. But its only a badge at the end of the day

   would you put a 'type R' badge on the back of a corsa?!
   
   If the answer is no, then dont put the vtr badge on your furio
   
   if the answer is yes (and believe me some people do do it..i know, iv seen them)then go ahead and do it...coz pretending to have something youve not got is the least of your worries!!lol

   spot on my view exactly, it all annoys me like 16v badges on VTRs aswell and turbo badges where they shouldnt be!
   
   DONT DO IT

    Its hard to tell with vtrs though, but furios have a nice set of shitty drum brakes for all to see

    fitting vtr badges to 1.4s is like stuffing a pack of socks down your pants!
    
    it wont impress people when they find out who small your lump is

    be proud of your 1.4 mate, many people have to struggle with a 1.1, it aint all that bad.

    Dont mean to bring up this thread but I saw some replies that angered me. I have just bought vtr badges for my furio and tbh I dont care what you all think and neither should he, YES its saying its something its not but that basically what your doing when you turbo it or engine conversion it but no-1 slates that. People put vts engines in 1.1 but nobody says anything, people turbo saxo's when if they were meant to be they would come pre-done with it. Iv noticed something on here, people are so quick to say weather they dont like something and criticize others and tbh its pissing me off...

    seriously you need to vent your anger out somewhere, you've got issues with furio badges, did a furio badge touch you up as a kid?

    Why would you badge it up as something it aint?
    
    If I was 17 again then yes. I did so. An xr2 badge on a 1.1 fiesta. Who was I kidding?
    
    On another note; furio 92 - badges, where did you find them?

    Mine has citroen sport badges on it. yes, it aint a vts, and it isnt fast, but they came on the car.
    
    reeaaallly want to 16v a flatarch and leave 1.0 on the side
    
    also, theres plenty of furios about here that have S wheels and badges. can spot them a mile off, what with the drums, interior and the shorter rear axle

    That was a random car in the league of a car between a furio and a vtr in my eyes.
    
    And to the lad who's badging his car up, If your still doing the same tricks in 10 years plus... Your life hasn't worked out the way you wanted it too has it? Your only lying to your self.
    I bet your insurance company liked that you badged your car up too
    
    I wrote that in 2007 and I'll never change. Pay the premium if your that bothered.
