Sorry man, but I guess good taste can't be taught.

Face it, there is no point in creating a new font and making an obscenely large "IX" badge just so you can place in on some random place in the car.

I've said this before and I'll say it again, it's not Jenga! You're not just supposed to keep adding stuff on to the car, or eventually... you're going to end up with a big ugly mess.

The UK badges are more than sufficient and they look excellent. That thing is just going to look bad. Plain and simple

I hope you're talking about the thread starter, because I'm giving my opinion without the blatant use of profanity.

Hes already said he can change the size of it. Just because you have different taste doesnt mean that others have bad taste. And putting him down for the time he spent on that is just plain stupid and you need to appretiate the work people have done even though its not your style.

I never once put him down for taking the time to make it, nor did I ever imply that I didn't appreciate the effort. I was criticising the finished product, not the process. Please understand this.

ummm I think telling him he has bad taste for the badge he made which is simply a "IX" which can be found on the end of a $80 dollar UK badge you can purchase from lancershop.com!!! OMG ALMOST EVERY EVOM MEMBER MUST HAVE BAD TASTE! I think that qualifies as "putting him down"

If he puts an all pink and blue interior with fiber glass door panels and painted some pokemon crap on it, maybe then you can say he has bad taste

Sorry bro but that does not look in any way like the UK evo badges... it's probably twice the size and the font is different. We've established that everyone has their opinions, so I'll stick to mine

WOW he has already posted that he can change the size of it, and yes everyone is entitled thier opinion and I am not here trying to change yours. A simple "i personally dont like it but whatever floats you boat" wouldve been fine. but telling him he has bad taste is not stating your opinion, but puttin him down. I didnt Know different fonts of a badge made such a huge difference but if that matters to you then whatever. I dont care enough.

nice work but......


thats not a badge as the title says.....a badge isnt that big, at least i havent seen one that big in my whole life

u should call it an ornament ...it will look great on a Christmas tree, garage, toolbox etc... but not on ur car.


another thing.....i know it looks nice and u can make them smaller and all but a "badge" on any car should look stock....like it came with/on the car. by looking at the pics u can tell it is "home made" not a good thing for a badge
