:cry: What's with people putting HSV badges on commodores, and some people making new Badges up???? :s
If it's not the real Maccoy, why do people do it???? ^o)

I guess it's like people putting GT-R badges on their GTS Skylines, when they're ony running an RB25DE with nothing than a riced-up, wide body kit?
I'm confused :(

It's like kissing your sister - SHOULD NEVER BE DONE!!! End of story!

Hey guys, thought i would add my bit.
I'm a owner of a hsv and i hate seeing mockups with all the badges etc.
Especially when the have clubby or gts stickers etc and have a 6.
I'm a big fan og mock up walky's aslong as they are not built to look identical and have the stickers. Hsv need to be more stringent on the handing out of genuine stuff. Call me a prude but hey, nothin wrong with building something that looks similar, just don't try and flog it off os the real deal, and yes kissing your sister should not be done!! ever!!!!!! lol

When I get my Marlin 39A, im gonna go hunting for commodores with the fake bullet hole stickers and put some real rounds in their car. Then they cant complain they don't have the real thing :)
That's what I think of people with fake $hi+ on their commies:)

AFAIK you need to provide a VIN number to get most HSV parts. Unfortunatly not all of their distributors police this the way they should and as things get older, more aftermarket suppliers pop up and will sell to anybody. IMHO HSV have done as much as can be expected in this respect.

I'm going the other way with no HSV badges - put all the good bits in and leave it bog stock standard on the out side... hope to keep it longer that way.
No advertising to come steal the car....
