    Default Well, holden has the "chev badges", now Ford have something similar

    So, theres a large bunch of guys (including myself) who hate seeing everyone with a chev badge on their holden....

    Lately i've discovered ford have a shitty visual change that i've seen far too often. Not sure how many of you know a lot about fords, but im sick of seeing Force 6 boot soundings on falcons, especially XR6 Turbo's. There's no way to describe it besides saying "it just doesn't suit anything".

    C'mon guys, we are always ripping on our own kind for chev badges, why not rip of fords for something

    The silver part on the boot surrounding the number plate on the image above. Looks nice on that, looks like shit on a regular falcon

    But it's nothing like a chev badge. It doesn't say anything about the car that isn't true.

    It's the same as putting say a Calais garnish on a exec. Just a bit of bling.

    If however, someone was to fit a Mustang badge on Falcon.....

    I definitely agree, and i didn't mean to relate it in the same way that it says anything untrue, i meant it in a way that lots of people are doing it to their falcons, as lots of holden drivers have chev badges...

    And also, calais garnishes look decent, these don't :P

    And I'm sure the people that fit them think they DO look good. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

    Yeah i know matey, just like people who put chev badges on their commodores think it looks good, thats their opinion, and my opinion of chev badges (like many other peoples) is that they are stupid. Not tryna be awful or rip on anyone.
