Ok I see what you saying. Kind of like FX4 decals on a 2wd XL Ranger.

And that the reason for the heads, cam and turbo. His car is fast and we haven't run into anything in the street we couldn't beat but I know there is faster stuff out there. I might buy his 92 Eagle Talon TSI and build that.

Yes sir. He put it up for sale but if he doesn't sell it by August then I will buy it. I have the money for it now but I want to buy my new truck first.

I have FX2 Sport decals on my 2.3L XL. I put them on becouse I wanted to add some color to my truck. I really like the way they look. So my truck may only be a 4cyl XL, but who cares, its my truck, and I can do anytthing I want to it.

Unless you've actually got the package (and not just all the mods) I think it's ricey to put stickers on it saying anything but what the truck actually is. Even if I bought an FX4 Off-Road and spent all the time and money putting in the skid plates, the entirely new interior, the transfer case, the rear axle with Torsen limited slip, the tow hooks and bumper, fender flares, and the shocks, I still wouldn't put Level II stickers on it. That's like a Honda Accord Type R... seriously wtf?

And if you went and put so much time and effort into building your truck (or your camaro, or whatever else) why would you want to belittle it with a FACTORY sticker? If it's as good or better and YOU built it, take responsibility for it! Don't be a lame-*** and try to convince people you bought it that way.

As for the Camaro, I think it's cool if he wants to put the hood/trunk/whatever on there, just not the SS badge. If he likes the looks of an SS great, but if you've got a modded Z28 that'll beat an SS, flaunt it! Badges are just not something to be messed with IMO. Be proud of what you've got and what you've made of it.

I have an Edge plus. I had Edge decals(stock) on it and didn't like them so I replaced them with smaller ones(which I still didn't really like) and then I added the 'EDGE Off-Road' decals that I had custom made. My truck is an Edge and I am making it more and more off-road capable(and I think it has an off-road look,(custom rear bumper, push bar, KC off-road lights, better tires, skid plate)). I have new better gears sitting under my bed and I will have bigger better tires when These wear out. I perfer trails, but here are some pics. when I got done plaing in some mud.
