    Default STOLEN V8 badges grrrrrrrrrrr!

    just having my rant just noticed yesterday that my some dirty scummer has stolen my v8 bagdes at the front underneath the indicator light thankfully they didnt scratch the paint anyone know where i can get some cheap ones from doesnt look that bad without them and i cant justify spending 50$ on badges which is the cheapest i could find.

    I never understood why people steal badges..

    How many times do you see a nice HSV with the outline of the HSV badge where it used to be and was obviously stolen. Anyway, leave it de-badged.. concider yourself lucky they didn't scratch the paint. Looks much cleaner

    That sucks mate. I just had someone decide to rip the aerial off my R33 skyline. Some people really just don't care about other peoples property.

    I've had the SS pinched once and the "V" badge twice. I haven't bothered replacing the V badge. Some bugger wanted the big chrome lion badge off the grille once too. The stupid thing is they risk a beating and a half if I catch one of them over a $15 (?) item.

    if i ever caught a scumbag trying to get their fingers on my badges i will **** them up so bad paying full price would be more convenient for them next time.
    saying that... my car is in a locked garage at home and secure carpark at work, and when i go out i make sure it's somewhere near a camera if i'm not nearby
    yes it's true... girls do drive manual v8's
