I saw a Lexus IS300 with Toyota Altezza badging. I was actually really proud of the guy. Usually when you tell someone with a Lexus they drive a Toyota they get all pissed off. Worst I have seen is a Lancer, actually, badged as a Mercedes Compressor....

few years back nissan has said the Skyline and GT-R will become two differnt cars
as the us market G35 is badge as Skyline in Japan so all the person did was using Japanese badge just like many EVO owner using UK badges.

speaking of false badging....
Has anyone else ever seen the clip on streetfire.net where at a car show these two guys see a Mustang with a GT-R emblem on the back and huge Japanese lettering on the back glass? They walk over to the guy and start messin with him beyond belief. It is one of the funnier clips I've seen with people impostering their vehicle. Please, I hope someone else in here has seen this other than myself.

maybe i'm just too critical when it comes to badges.
I also think it would have looked better without the g35 on it and just the skyline part.

such a good clip.
if I had a 350 I don't think I'd want it to say fairlady on it.

I have serious issues with Lancer or WRX owners rebadging their rides as Evo's or STi's. I mean, even if you modify your car to be fast, it's still the same car. There must be at least 10 WRX's in South Bay that have a wing and STi badges...
