I disagree. You are saying that if I take a base model Mirage and slap on a VR4 emblem it's not trying to make it look like something it's not?? Slap a VR4 on a US Galant and you are now claiming parts you don't have.. TT being top on the list heh.
Ultimately Lilginny, do what you want to your car. You paid for it. However be prepared to get some grief, especially if you goto car shows. I don't care if you built your motor up so it's a 9 second Galant, misbadging your car is a ricey thing to do unless it has 100% of the model differences inherent in the new badge model. Not only that, but it takes away from your respect in more ways than one. Obviously misbadging loses you respect with car-types who know better just for it being there, but also if you dust some car considered fast the people will see your tail as you pull ahead and be like "oh, it's a vr4.. no suprise it's fast stock" whereas if you didn't screw the badging up they'd see you made it fast through your hard work. Plus why should you be ashamed of your car? I guess it's the youthful mentality. I had sticked up my cars when I was a kid (never misbadged tho).
Just my .02, take it as you will.
