Need 3 Ef2 Xr8 badges - mine are missing - tail only replaced by an Au xr8 series badge by previous owner -would like suggestions on stockists (I know ford would charge way too much

Found a site where they were $16 each but when I rang them they had gone out of business hmmm...Also am in 2 minds about getting my bonnet resprayed (bad sone chips butched by ford touch up pen by previous owner) will future buyer think it has had front ender accident hmmm guess should photographically document? yes I know I suffer fom OCD but this Xr is totally stock ,mechanically A1 and has only 127,190 kms so want to get it perfect and keep it even had original Michaeln tyres until I put some Pirellis onundefined

Cool thanks mate, and why do i need SVO parts just to put badges on it, i want them becasue they look better than the 4ltr badges.

well, I think its a bit rich calling yourself "svo xr6" when your car is nothing like either of them.

Just get a SVO lip spoiler, sway bars, short shifter, just something and then it might be justified.

I know I owned copies, but alteast they were believable.

Nothing personal, just the way it is.

Perhaps actually getting some SVO parts might be an idea first?

As for badges, FTG the site sponser shoudl have some aswell.

What does changing the badges do? Does it make Commodore owners worry more at the lights? If I put 5L chrome ones on my 3.9 do you think it'll go quicker - or just look good.

Ferrari badges look better than Ford badges, does that mean I can get some?
