That badge is cool and all but I personally think that the "R" thing has become very over rated and over used these days. Pretty much when I see a vehicle sporting the "R" this to me simply just means RICE!

If you're going to sport the "R" badge, you really should have something to look at and ponder over. The vehicle should be fast, high HP and have the nuggets to back up that "R" logo. Otherwise, don't bother with it, people will just laugh at you. You might even become the next joke thread in some other forum one day :rollr2:

Maybe the "R" stands for revolution not rice. When I think rice burner I think of tiny little cars on tiny little wheels with tiny little motors large canned mufflers that make that irritating MEGA weedeater sound. and thouse Huge whale fin spoilers that are supposed to give the car exta traction at the whopping 60mph that these car will average on the normal street. oh yes and the ground effects that scrape up the pavement every time they run over a bottlecap. Thank god they can't hear me laugh over the bass that overcomes every other audible frequency in a 1/2 mile radius. Did I mention that under the hood its still a civic, or a prelude or a...... you get the point! Don't get me wrong, If you have these things and have poured about $4k under the hood also, and go to the track or get dyno tested on a regular basis. Than you have a car. If not ....its a rice burner! R is for revolution. Revolting against vehicles that serve no purpose. A vx will do it all! we should all sport the VXR badge!! Rise up and be counted! by the way how much is it? :p :p :p

don't get me wrong I like the badge. Just not on cars that can't back it up.... I think the stock Vehicross is more than capable of doing so!

For supercharged models "VXS" would ring true, and come with a good pun, too.

Nothing exceeds like excess :-)

no, the emblem i ordered came as 5 seperate letters, i had to pull the emblem off, it was pretty easy, just left the car out in 90 degree heat and carefully pried it off with a small screwdriver... anyone who tries to do it, make sure you start in the middle under the first U because thats the weak point in the emblem, youll probably break it otherwise
