Hello everyone,

Looking to change the side F-sport decal on the side of my rc. I found this picture and cant find this emblem anywhere. Anyone seen it anywhere? Its Just the F letter in brushed aluminum from what it looks like

Buy the RC-F. Switch badges. Sell the RC-F.
That's what I'd do.

Don't get F badges when your car isn't an RCF. You don't have the performance to back it up, so it would be very poser-like.

If you want to pretend that your are driving a more expensive car, why not put a Ferrari sticker on it?

I've seen some pretty hilarious cars...like a Kia with Mercedes badges all over, a Daewoo with Jaguar badges and leaper, and a Chrysler with Bentley badges.

This is probably one of the worst poser-mobiles I have ever seen. It's a Mercedes C250 "dressed up" as a C63 AMG. It had fake badges everywhere and fake hood bulges and fender vents. Don't even get me started on the tacky red all over. Haha

I agree. I don't see how else you could do it

Machi, the OP, does not want a badge - he only wants a "decal." You can get those on eBay for just a few bucks -

Why not get a Ferrari jacket while they're at it?

I agree with this statement.

The OP is free to do as they wish. But why do this? It's likely that the only people who are going to know the difference in the badge are the same people who are going to know that it's fake. I would shake my head and facepalm if I seen a non-RC F with the RC F badge on it...

Dave is right. I can tell by the wheels or by the grille whether its an F Sport or not. If I saw a standard grille (like mine) with an F-Sport badge, I would know that the driver is a phony, a poseur, or perhaps a politician.
