Opinion - 86 to FR-S

[GaN-MaN]

People are a little rougher in this forum it seems...

"god awful colour".
silly images.
thoughts of me rebelling.

I can understand that it might be hard to read for some, seems fine to me, but i cant even use bold black font? really?

*sigh*

It's called social behavioural standards. It's the same reason you don't walk up to a random person on the street and scream hello directly into their ear or poke them in the eye to get their attention.

But yeah, go for it if rebadging floats your boat. Would be the real deal if you did a full conversion (downgrade exhaust/tips, seats, interior stitching etc).

Lol don't forget the guages switched to mph. You might end up with the only stock RHD frs

And just on the orange text, it may or may not have been bothering me but I wasn't going to say anything. I think this said it all:

not sure how a badge is gonna make a car unique though because at the end of the day its still is what it is no matter what badges you have on it

which is why i said "unique" since we wont get the Scion variation over here you wont be seeing one on the streets.

it'll be "different" then. haha.

What a shit thread....

I say stick the scion badges on as gay as that is... Atleast we will know who u are at any 86 get together in Perth.... Why not get some pink number plates while ur being "unique"....

[GaN-MaN]

this is what i mean... do people just love hating on this forum?

i asked for opinions. a simple mature answer and reason would have sufficed.

seems to be a very tough thing to do in this forum...

Dude, you have 10 posts. Post with diff font and colour. No one has changed this in any of the threads ? I don't think. Expect backlash

Your talking about scion badges. Everyone in the u.s would have wanted it to be a Toyota not a scion. Need anyone say more about scion.

If you had normal font and colour and said you wanted to put on Subie badges then you prob would have received some different opinions.

Yeah, I get you want to be different, but you asked for opinions and you got them, whether they are nice or not.

Don't take it the wrong way dude.

Im thinkin when i get my 86 i would change the Toyota badges to Scion and add the FR-S on the boot.

My idea is to make my car a little more "unique" per say. Just to see a Scion badged 86 around gives it a lil extra touch which you won't see locally.

Thoughts? Be gentle. haha.

Hey, its your car, I say why not? To me, its no different than the folks in North America switching the badging to Toyota, despite all the "legitimate" reasons some of them will say they have for doing it.
I'm not hung up on the whole Toyota/Scion thing like some in US/Canada seem to be. Heck the car has more Subaru badging than it will ever have Toyota/Scion badging anyway if you look at all the stampings, VIN plates, etc.

Heck, I'd be willing to trade with you (sort of a Pen Pal swap). Then, some day maybe we could visit our old badges in each other's country!I do think it would be kinda cool to know part of my car was in Perth!

Think we are all just a bit jealous that the u.s have their cars and we don't. No firm eta yet.

This car is made to be customized. Each to their own. We are all here cause we love this car and that's all it should be about.

P.s too many Subie badges/markings for my liking. Don't get me wrong I love subie's, just love the Toyota badge more. Dammm you Toyota, you could have built this car yourself, but it's all about saving money these days isn't it.

i do realise i have about 10 posts. More reason to be gentle? to someone who is new to the ft86club scene? Didnt feel very welcoming is all im saying. Like i've said previously, ive always used the bold orange font in the forums ive joined for over a year now and i come here for one day and get "backlashed"? You can't say that it's not reasonable for me say something like that, nor was i saying every member in this forum was hating on me.

i dont see why i would receive different opinions. Im not quite understanding the i'll get different response according to the colour of my font?

i get that. i wanted opinions. how can u call this mature?

If you can justify his comment then my apologies. "Dadhawk's" comment is something i would say is mature and much more what i wanted to hear.

Thanks Dadhawk. I was unaware of that. Maybe i should put Subie badges on it? haha.

So u dont mind putting Toyota badges on ur FR-S?

I'd probably keep my Toyota badges anyway in case i ever wanted to swap back but thanks anyway.
