That's normal. Like lexus badge sporting toyota badge. Acura badge sporting acura. Its been around. I've seen a few vip lexus LS with those.

wait please clarify what you ment: LS rocking toyota badge? if this is what you ment its because in japan the LS is actually called a Toyota Celcior, I'm sure in the near future we'll see FR-S wearing the GT-86 badges.

I don't mind this, to each his own. But i think its childish to act like it is something that it is not. Be real.

I actually saw this at school, and when I was test driving an 2IS a couple weeks later at the dealership I told the salesman about it, and he told me people have actually been paying to do it for years. He wasn't surprised at all.

He said usually it's men buying cars for their wives so that their wives think they had more money spent on them than they really did.
