Default Badges/Stickers

To those of you who mod your S2K's, how do you know when you have the "right" to put a certain badge/sticker on your car? For example, if someone has a Mugen oil cap, and no other Mugen products, should that person be able to sport a Mugen badge on their car? Or should that person have a good number of performance parts before sporting a badge? I saw a Civic the other day at my local performance store while getting my Spoon N1 installed. The Civic had a huge Spoon Sports decal on the top of it's windshield. Being curious as to what he had under the hood, I asked the owner what Spoon Sports parts he had, only to find out that the car was equipped with only OBX parts. What do you guys think? Should someone have to spend 5k in a certain company's products before "rightfully" sporting that company's badge? Or should a person with only a Mugen radiator cap be able to sport a Mugen badge?

I have H&R springs and an H&R sticker(very small) on my windshield. Who's gonna stop me? I don't think Mugen will chase you down and make you take the sticker off. AKA, you're fine.

I know people can put anything they want on their cars--don't get me wrong. I'm just saying that I think it's ridiculous to put badges/stickers on your car if you don't have anything from that specific company. I mean, if you saw a person with an H&R sticker on his/her car, and you find out that the car doesn't have any H&R products, what would you think?

I have Top Fuel badge right under keyhole on trunklid. Got it cuz it looks really cool and most people can't read it anyways since print on it really small. Unfortunately I don't have anything TopFuel since they only make turbochargers for S2K. That's probably a mod in the long run but not right now. TopFuel make anything else besides turbochargers for S2K? If so point me in the right direction.

doen't really matter to me one way or another.. i really like to supercharged badges placed just over ricks badges and even though my car isn't superchared (just yet).. i'm gonna get one

what comes to mind is nascar.. the sponsers pay BIG bucks to place a sticker on the car but do you think they run Tide j/k..

I think that any sticker just brings more attention on the car from people that might want to steal your things. It just lets people know exactly what u have. The best thing u can do is keep all your mods on the down low.

Bernie Lomax,

That's what i'm saying.. The orig poster stated that he thought there "should" be some sort of minimum requirement before one can put a badge on their car.. my thoughts are it
