Sorry guys, When i say ricey, I mean it in a way in which work (such debadging or shaving door handles) is done in a haphazard way as to leave bolt holes or holes in general and then to pain over it with primer or a slightly off color. I didn't mean to say that debadging is ricey, just bad debadging is ricey. Maybe ricey isn't the word.
Either way, I think getting all upset about Scion badging is a little juvenile. If you want a big name badge, go get a big name car like Porsche or Lexus. I thought only superficial people were worried about a social status symbol of a big named car, and I thought this was devinately not the kinda place for those type of people. Its an act of insecurity in my opinion. Be proud of what you drive, you bought it.....
I understand the concept of debadging or stated above "rebadging", but for me its just a name, everybody that cares about import cars knows that a 240sx is the same chasis as the Japaneese Silvia or 180SX, just the engine is different, and if you do the swap to an SR20 and you feel proud of your self about it then by all means put the Silvia badges on it. Just don't badge it an Infinity, because you don't want people to think of your car as just a Nissan, thats how i feel about the Scion/Toyota badging, i know tha great toyota parts and workmanship goes into each car. Why worry about the fucking badge?
