PSA regarding V6T and Supercharged badges....

**PSUGOLD** · 03-02-2015 09:44 AM

PLEASE choose one or the other, NOT BOTH!!! To the person I saw in Philly with the Supercharged badge ABOVE the V6T badge, PLEASE STICK TO ONE!!! I drove by and saw something funky on the front side of the car, had to get a closer look, gave me a good chuckle for the ride down town. Having BOTH badges does not make the car seem double fast, ok???

That is all.

**MrFunk** · 03-02-2015 10:01 AM

LOL wow... such passion and anger!

**Dr GP** · 03-02-2015 10:06 AM

The V6T badges were removed from both my new S4s within 10 mins of getting the car home. IMHO, that nomenclature is just confusing. No badges or SC badges work for me. Not both.

**CaptSlow** · 03-02-2015 10:09 AM

I like em because the average joe won't know what the hell it is.

LOL! Saw one just like it a few months back, at least they took off the C300 badge....shameless!

**AZT** · 03-02-2015 10:18 AM

I wouldn't hold that one against him as there are far worse badging offenses. Like the M badge stuck on a 328... now that shows some real feelings of insecurity.

The c300 doesn't have an amg badge on the back, even with the package.

Lol, I saw an E92 328i badge ripped off and replaced with an M badge, but didn't take a picture because he turned away

**brianc21** · 03-02-2015 10:29 AM

Are they just stuck on? How does one go about removing them without messing up the paint?

Yes they are stuck on, I used a heat gun and fishing line. Heated up then pulled the fishing line behind it, came right off

**doug97gxe** · 03-02-2015 11:19 AM

Worked like a charm, thanks! Finally free and clear of those things.

**BernanksBeard** · 03-02-2015 01:38 PM

I've noticed I'm alone on this, but I dislike the supercharged badges, and prefer the look of the V6T. Maybe it's because I have to be in the minority with everything I do (not that I'm Mr. Original). Don't beat me up too bad, it's just my opinion, though all the hate for the V6T badges has made me question myself a few times lol. I wanna black out my badges, but don't know what I'll do about the fender badges.. If the factory put it on, it's not like I'm being dishonest.... Am I?

**Okan509** · 03-02-2015 01:41 PM

no fender badges are the best fender badges

Yeah your probably right, plan on removing rear S4 badge, to try and prevent kids from trying to race me, removing the side badges would go a long way to help my cause. Don't think I can part with the grill badge but I'll take it step by step... Still haven't even picked her up yet, but got the email saying its on American soil, yay!

**zps123** · 03-02-2015 01:49 PM

my car is badgeless except the front so I could troll mercs and bimmers hehehe

**RainJer** · 03-02-2015 01:52 PM

My fender badge says, scV6T#zomg!1!

It cost me $1,200 to install along with my shortshifter

The S4 is as sleeper as is. I've had anything from ML350's to Nissan Altimas try unsuccessfully overtake me

**doug97gxe** · 03-02-2015 02:18 PM

I don't like V6T badges because ppl assume u have a turbo.. Supercharged badge is fitting

Funny you mentioned this..... I saw this car earlier today and it has both badges.http://www.ebay.com/itm/Audi-S5-2dr-...US_Cars_Trucks

Noticed it's a lemon/manufacturer buyback

C250 sport package, no AMG badges here

**Okan509** · 03-02-2015 04:10 PM

The only sport package a non AMG car will have in terms of AMG branding are the wheels

Same here

from 5 feet away the supercharged badges look like S-line to the avg joe and s-line = a4

no thanks

Agreed. My fenders are de-badged.

**mgaman** · 03-02-2015 05:07 PM

I dunno...maybe take the "T" off the V6 and work the Supercharger badge in there nicely - at least then it be accurate.

Fender feels naked without a badge.

couldn't disagree more. it clots the smooth and beautiful lines of the fender IMO.

when your fender arch is sitting right atop your tire, and have nothing to disrupt your admiration of the body lines. Not much better IMO.

not hating on them, if you like them, fine by me. But many people like them for the wrong reason, like a "yo bro, you know what I got under the hood?".

Striving too hard to differentiate from an A4 in many cases, when the general population could not give a fuck, despite what people may think. It's like revving your engine while you pass a bunch of kids. I do not condone such actions. lol

Badass cars get admired and get attention by having presence on the road, not by the badges they sport, and if people are getting their shafts hard over a badge, then its not the type of person I want attention from anyways.
