Ok, I have Chev badges on my car. Criticise as much as you like. But at least understand my reasoning.

Firstly, I simply hated the size of the holden logo. Simple. Next, my car is a 60th Ann and as such has the chrome door handles. I felt the best way to tie it all together was to use a chev grille and rear badge and paint the bowtie black. I think it is very clean and the black and chrome of the grille and rear badge match very nicely the door handles.

What I think is completely wrong is seeing the same rear badge I have on the front and rear of a VE HSV.... I know I shouldnt criticise that decision but it looked very wrong in the way they were added.

Its a conspiracy! Sell Australia's favourite family car with a big arse, dinner plate size chrome badge on the front, then make some extra dollars selling after market chevy badges. Ah Holden you are a clever little cookie!
