Wasn't to sure where to post this so i will just go ahead and post it here in the pub and if the moderator sees fit to move it then thats cool.

I have an XF, modified abit of course, and wanted to know what peoples opinions where on putting tickford wings and XR6 badge on the machine.

So what do you think?? should i do it or just keep the standard S badges on there???

uh oh, here we go again, there was a huge discussion about this a few months back, at times it got rather heated.

In my opinion I wouldn't do it, but as it is your car, I say if you want to, go for it.

Only if you have an XR6 engine.

Yes, dont put Tickford badges on your ride if its not Tickfod tickled. Sure it looks nice but how many Executives do you see with HSV badges. It degrades the image if you know what i mean.

GAY

Doesnt matter how modified it is, its not an XR6 and never will be.

Only Tickford are allowed to put XR and Tickford badges on cars.

Remember many fake GT's carry GT's badges.

And not to sound like an asshole, but an XY Falcon 500 with GT badges is just as stupid as an XF S with XR6 badges or a Lancer GLi with Evolution badges or a Impreza GX with WRX/STi badges or a BMW 318i with M3 badges..
:oo1:

Or course this is just my opinion:dead:

heh. When I put an EF XR6 engine into my XE, i'm going to put tickford wings onto the side, where the EFI badges are currently. I love the understated look of the tickford wings, and IMO its the engine that will be dishing out lessons, therefore the wings will have a home on the side.. credit given where credit is due
