Badging and You
Now Ive seen a few different variations of the way people have the badging on their SCs and I just wanted to get a view of everyones different opinions as far as the badging looks. Just leave some feedback on what you prefer and why.

Just to expound on this thread a bit, is it really "poser" like to put those emblems on? I really thought it'd be much less social annoyance to say I have a Toyota than a Lexus (I generally don't like the whole "you have a WHAT?" reaction). On the other hand I CAN see how it would be almost depreciating toward the Soarer owners (who have a more powerful setup from the get-go). But what if the SC has been up'd? Turbo or otherwise, if the output was similar, is there some sort of "poser culture" that one could be concerned over?
It's not like taking an SC300 and putting "SC400" badge on, or a Firebird and slapping a TA symbol and dual exhaust on it, or a 2.5 Altima throwing a 3.5 on. (Sorry 'tangies, you just don't get any mention in my posts :P)
Bottom line is that they are so similar (especially if the Lexus is boosted some how), that what cultural lines are drawn?

Even if the car is "boosted" like the 2jz-gte swap i am doing it still is the lexus left hand drive and not soarer right hand drive. Like when you see ohh wow dang it's a real soarer and then you see the driver on the left side and not right then it's just like ohh a sc300/400 my bad.
