Cars with an identity crisis?
Yesterday we were at an Orange County shopping center when I spotted a conservatively modded Camry. When I walked by it, I noticed it had a "L" emblem and a "VTEC Tuning" emblem and another which I can't remember on the trunk lid. 
What triggers this identity crisis?

I can see the Acura for Honda swaps but not the vice versa. We know for a fact that there exists no Acura Civic, Acura Accord etc. This goes the same with Lexus/Toyota.... well not any longer since Lexus was introduced into Japan now (except older models).
As for that Camry? No idea... maybe he really has a V-TEC dropped into the Camry but then again why the Lexus badges.
For my own personnal tastes, I'll keep my badges the car came with and I won't add any extras, that includes windshield decals. I have the belief that the car was designed with the right amount of badges and that the car shouldn't have to flaunt what kind of car it is. I prefer my car without shaved badges.
To each his(/her) own though...
