Badged

[Lin33r]

Ladies/Gents,

parked my GTR in rundle st upark last nite. it was only there for bout 30 mins returned to find it badged. both front and back. pulled the entire block mounted front one off, breaking clips to. the rear one they have scratched the hell out of the boot.

Does anyone know any good touch up guys??

doesnt this sort of inane bullshit just stink?

thank dan

i haven't actually used him but he was very nice and dropped by to give me a quote, i think Justin @ Everlast referred him to me

[Lin33r]

cheers madaz, no security cameras just for the record guys.

[Rbware]

Sorry to hear

[J_Red33]

Damn that sucks, use to park my line there fairly regular, no one obviously likes the little GT bagdes that much.

What the hell do these wankers do with a pair of GT-R badges anyway? Stick them on their commo so it's 'fully sick'

I got mine de-badged a few yrs back, lucky the guy was a pro, no damage to the paint

You can get a genuine one from Nissan for about $60-80

[karv_g3]

damn sorry to hear. just because they dont have anything nice of their own that have to destroy other peoples property

[skylineguy19]

people are shit, you can buy ones off ebay for like 10 bux or something.

Hope karma bites them in the ass!

[Nightcrawler]

Sucks to hear. I have an R33GTR front badge on the mounting thing (off my brother-in-law's old broken front grille) for sale if you want one $50

[Lin33r]

friend of mine has a 32 GTR. He had the badges stuck on with industrial strength velcro and then whenever he parked somewhere in town etc he just pulled them off and put them in the car. You couldn't tell if you looked at them that they were only stuck on.

He went out the other week though and forgot to remove the badges first. Got back to his car and they were gone I guess the only upside is that the paint wasn't damaged.

[J_Red33]

I guess if you can get them for 10 bucks on ebay all you need is a bit more of that velcro. Not a bad idea.

It’s a real shame that people do these sort of things and velcro has to be used so badges can be removed when parking your car

Someone who works at the same place as my mum bought an Aus delivered R32 GTR back in 1992, he said he couldnt take it anywhere, badged, scratched, damaged etc. Bogans must have been a bit more upset back then than they are now...

Sucks to hear though, hopefully it doesnt cost too much to get it back the way it was!

Heheh. Aside from the GTR badge on the back, the rest of my badges have been removed prior to the last respray

just hope no mongrel keys it

twas 140 for a r32 gtr badge when i spoke to them, that was few years ago though. i think 32s is the only 1s that have specific badges for specific colours because the sticky bit behind needs to match your car. lol just noticed u got 33 so prob cheaper for urs then

and as for what they do with them i dont know, but i usually get pretty mad when i see a fake gtr with a badge present thinking is that mine you lil f er
