Badge of Ownership ...

Post by Bantum » Wed Oct 24, 2012 6:06 pm

'Twas doing a bit of browsing and came accross this : Badge of Ownership

Typical of Amercians doing their own God damn thang' ... :oops:

Not sure I'd want it, but maybe some of you out there might - for street cred / looks ... :)

Hmm ... Your thoughts ?

Note: Site say's they are free, but it requires a VIN number ...

Yeah I've known about this for some time. There are some members around that have them. There's a thread on ORS about ordering them from the members in the US.

I wouldn't mind one but I don't know where I'd put it - the Jerry can and Spare Wheel would get in the way...

Cheers

Bennie the best place for a BOO is at face level of the car behind.

So you rear diff centre? :D

Has been raised several times before - general consensus is the BOO is all a bit naf

MY FAMILY suck ? huh, they're cute esp the F*cK your family ones with each member hanging from a noose, with detail of eyes popping and tongue hanging out :D

Some of us may have trouble deciding what badge number to get and will it need to be updated anytime soon.

Reckon the best badge/sticker for us (and Subaru marketing) is "my next car WILL be SUBARU"

I went into a shop and asked if they had a picture of dad holding an axe... needless to say the lady behind the counter wasn't amused.

Would look good ... daddy holding an axe and the family plus pets, scattered around the rear windscreen in pieces.

Would love one of those ownership badges if it had a surfer on it, not some numpty in a kayak.

I used to always associate Subaru ownership as kayak paddling FOTE's :D

I must say Batumn, these opinions should stop you from getting one if you really want it - if it sets your subaru out from the others go for it.

If it's a different badge to what's around (which it will be), I doubt it'd last long though :(

Even the rules suck...

Maximum limit of "Complete Badge of Ownership" orders per VIN is 4. Maximum limit of each Additional Lifestyle Icon is 5.
