Its like the signature of the car, the five letters that strike fear into the hearts of rice car owners everywhere.And I wouldnt want to be pulling up the bonnet every time someone doesnt believe its a turbo.On the other hand though it would be good to see the look on thw face of the bloke that thinks he can burn you, not seeing the badge and all...Just my 2 bobs worth...

Mainly for reasons of theft and damage. The turbo seems to say take me.I will be looking at doing some minor mods to mine and would prefer to have the 'T' as more of an understated character but knowing the full potential.Daniel Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/7868-de-badging/#findComment-72306 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want everyone to know what I'm driving. If, after that, they still want a piece of me ... their problem, not mine. :lol: Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/7868-de-badging/#findComment-72314 Share on other sites More sharing options...

These other guys would have loud speakers on the roof raving to others what they got & what it cost if some one would install it free of charge.Hmmmm ............ Ranting even after lunch, must still be hungry.Scotty Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/7868-de-badging/#findComment-72337 Share on other sites More sharing options...
