This trend must be dying off, I haven't seen a Craptiva, Cruze, Rodeo or Colorado with a Chevy badge for a while.
Although I have seen an Arcadia with a huge GMC badge on the grille.
Why are Holden owner the number one group that are embarrassed to show the world what they drive?

I can confirm there is at least one Craptiva left in Melbourne with Chevy badges still on it as it overtook us today on Western Port Highway...we had a good laugh about it!

I once took the Mazda badge off a T3500 truck and swapped it for a Ford Trader one.
Absolutely sinful.

I wonder how many cheap b**tard Mazda BT50 owners there are running around with Ford Ranger badges.

I have never understood the mindset behind fake badges.

The worst I saw was an Hyundai i45 decked out with Mercedes S65 badges. It had the Merc badge, S65 badge and an AMG badge. Like why? Trying to trick people who know nothing about cars into thinking your Hyundai is a $300,000 Mercedes?

People who know what they're looking at just laugh, people who don't know what they're looking at don't know or care what S65 AMG means
