and he's right. There's nothing "wrong" with it, except that you think that he's faking it by putting the wrong badge on it, and I think people who put on the body panels of a different car is also faking it. It's all to do with tolerance level - but I'm taking things to their natural conclusion.

You can't use the argument that the guy with the fake badges is faking it, but the one with the body panels of a higher model is not faking it - that's logically inconsistent. I'm logically consistent - to me they're all fake.

If you want to mod your car aesthetically, do what the bazillion legit businesses at SEMA do: buy/build a custom kit. Nothing wrong with that by anyone's book. No-one is then faking it - you'd be buying a "Galpin body kit" blah blah, and not "fooling people that your V6 is an SS".
Sorry but youre out of your mind if you think putting an SS bumper on a V6 is even near putting incorrect badges on. Its now even the same league, hell not even the same sport!

There is nothing special about the SS bumper that makes it perform differently. As long as there are no SS badges when placed on a V6 then theres no problem at all. Enthusiasts will spot the difference quick and thats what matters.

What I do have a problem with is people putting the ZL1 bumper on because that bumper has a specific design that actually does something for the ZL1.

But as long as a body mod is purely for aesthetics and isnt trying to pose as another car then theres no problem.

using your silly logic then you must get upset if people put Brembos on the V6 and I KNOW you arent that ridiculous...right?
