is anyone else getting a tad over seeing commos on the road with chevy rear/front badges?

fark theres more holdens with chevy badges here than there are actual chevys in america!!

are they factory optioned or something?

i know its coz of the v8 engines in holdens but theyre GM engines, theyre not built by chevrolet they just happen to be used in them aswell :D

arent the americans meant to be the "less educated" ones? i bet if you went over there you wouldnt see a single corvette with holden badges on...

ive decided to get a 2jz transplant and stick toyota badges on my car. screw this shit :D

/end rant

I was over it 20+ yrs ago, when every 1 tonner had one, a mate back then even had one on his HQ sedan...

Admittedly it had a 327 in it but still I hated it like I would a ginger headed step son.

Wtf is with commondorks with Pontiac bonnets and Chev badges though?

Some sort of identity crisis.. They're all ugly, that's all that matters.

Lexus Soarer ... Toyota Soarer ? any different ?

i've seen Toyota Soarer..... then a few months later same car has Lexus tags on them

I see a lot of that too but to the Toyotas boys credit, other than the badges they are actually the same car most of the time

oh god ive seen this soooooo much lately - was speaking with some mates about it and they all were sick of seeing every 2nd commo with a chev badge - put a f**king vauxhall badge on it you sheep!

ive seen one with a Lexus badge on the back and a Toyota badge on the front.

I purchased my Calais with the chevy badges already on it. Can't say it would be something I would have done myself but the Idiot had removed all the Calais badges which I put back on. I've removed the chevy badge from the bonnet and left the boot garnish & wheel centres as chevy. CBF changing them.

i dont see what all the fuss is about.. i mean is the world really coming to an end if people put a better looking badge on thier car?? (which kinda makes sense for the LS1s ect.)

i see nothing wrong with having a bow tie at the front or back of an SS, clubbie or the like so rimon find something else to b!tch about mate... lol

p.s. i havnt done it

It's a bit Michael Jackson when you think about it, no matter what he does he'll never be what he obviously wants to be.

Mmmm chevy badged comms will now be know as thriller edition comms.

    • Robertson was a Canadian inventor, and it absolutely reigns supreme here. 95% of our screws are Roberston. It's literally the only option you can buy off store shelves. What would it have lost out too? I believe it's also very popular in the US.  My reference to imperial was pointed to both NPT and BSP. 
    • No. BSP lost to the cultural/technical imperialism of living next to Trumpistan. Face it, Robertson screws were better and still pretty much lost out to the yank stuff. The Europeans hate the Brits and they don't use NPT. NPT is just as "imperial" as BSP is, being based on those useless inch thingos. Just done differently. 
    • I live in Quebec. Our license plate slogan is "Je me souviens" Translated is "We will remember" as a reminder to when England conquered us and that we must never forget what they did. Long story short, BSP is unheard of here due to being an English design. I'm surprised our nazi anti english government office the OQLF hasn't kicked in my door yet just talking about it, yet alone imperial anything.       
    • Thanks for that! I did a quick Google search looked up some of hydaulic stores and didn't see it listed on the website, I'll give them a ring. Also found out later that I can buy 2 oem bleeder bolts for 10 bux and come with the washer which I might do so I don't waste the money it costs in petrol to find 2 washers (already did that lol). The old copper washes look in good nick, I drove it after taking it off and putting it back on and didn't see any  Part number here for reference if anyone needs: 14053-42L0A
