Do anything you want except calling your car something its not.

You can have a GT500 body kit with V6 badges, and that is still fine.

Do NOT put anything that resembles the type of engine under the hood.

Dont **** with it, or you join the ranks of the trash that say "**** what everyone else says."

There's a reason EVERYONE says it. I may be rude, but it's nothing closer to the truth.

EX: If you know anything about Mercedes-Benz, AMG is our SVT.

I saw an E320 "AMG" and I called him out, the guy felt like the biggest dirtbag after I was done with him. I hope you don't run into someone that has any value for integrity in their brain because you will get ripped apart.

I say this. Change anything you want, wheels, body parts, grilles, or interior. But please dont put GT, or 5.0 on it. But nowadays with body kits and aftermarket exterior parts your car can look however you want it to. But to put badges from a different type car is to represent it as something its not. I would love to have the GT500 body kit, but i wouldnt put shelby or the Cobra emblems on it. Everything else should be pretty much fair game.

That's the general idea when a guy with a V6 names himself "Cobra Style" and asks if he can put GT badges on his car.

Don't misrepresent your car. This is why guys get so freakin' pissed when they take a girl home and get all the way to third base before discovering she's a tranny.
