    Sorry guys,but i think debadging the horse isn't a excuse to wax it or either have people wondering WTF is that,even with the badges on people still seems amazed when they look at a vehicross.
    Out there are worst vehicules than isuzu & i don't see their owners debaging them in any way.
    For instants I've seen a member added porche emblems in his VX (.) My ??? is why would you give porche the honor to carry their emblem on the VX ? When you'll never see a porch owner carrying a isuzu emblem on their car ? I don't think isuzu deserve such of disrespectfull action & neither you should be ashamed of carrying the isuzu letters on the VX, why ? simply because it was buildt by isuzu.
    I don't have the pillar letters because the were damaged & when i ready i'll put them back because it belongs there.
    I do agree the VX looks "uniform" without the letters,but any vehicule out there will also look "uniform" with no letters at all so to me makes no sense.
    Another reason ALL cars carries letters is to I'd'ing 'em in case of a unlawfull incident.
    Just imagine you witness someone being hit by a car you never saw before & left the scene You can't provide the police the vehicule's name or model because it was "naked"
    And if you "debaged" members belief the VX has too many of letters then look at the new RAV 4,the 4runner,the suzuki grand vitara or cherokee limted 5.7L which carries more letters & never saw a single one "debaged" for waxing purposes.

    I debadged my VehiCROSS because the badges are poorly designed aesthetically (ugly) and look really cheap and plastic and glittery. Do you "buy" that reason? Ironically on my new Camaro I'm adding extra badges! Retro ones from past eras of Camaro greatness. Explain that!

    Mine were all gone when I got it. It'll stay that way.

    There's nothing wrong with the badges but I prefer the look better without. It's not that I'm ashamed of driving an Isuzu - I just like the debadged look on the VX.

    Unfortunately the VX has no past era badges to replace with.I do agree they are low quality,however there are options to consider for replacement.

    I got a set of the VX grill badges from planetsvx. I had them in my pocket in a bar and someone mentioned the thickness of my wallet. I told them I carried a badge. They almost had me arrested, but they couldn't arrest me for impersonating a VX.
    So I said to myself, I said "Handee"
    and this voice came back and said..
    "He's not in, may we take a message?"

    Actually, all my badges are still on..I did think Moncha would like the "I carry a badge part."

    Been thinking about a custom tag for the front...somthing like
    "2010 ISUZU". Just to appease the questions like "What is it?"

    Weirdo huh, as a used to say in my mis-spent ute "Takes one to know one."

    Considering the source, I'll take that as a compliment...

    You should too...
