No offense, but I can't stand the "turbo" badge.

EVO looks great ---- have to admit the STi looks a lot better in person ---- pictures just make it look weird, too many angles going on

+1 on busdriver it looks way better in person. the body lines are beautiful and the pictures dont give it justice. by far we are not professional photographers but we had fun. with the whole turbo badge deal, i accept the comments, but i dig the turbo badge cause its what an evo is. TURBO!! the people that you need to hate on if thats what you like to do is the people that pose not the people that have the real thing. different strokes for different folks. thanks for the props from the people with positive comments.

I actually dig the turbo badge ---small, black and subtle --- when I was little my dad's volvo had a Turbo badge and I thought it was awesome --- it told everyone, 'watch it, I'm driving a swedish rocket'

it's not like a Mercedes with their ridiculous 4MATIC badges

nice car. like others said just minus the turbo badge. if someone cant tell its boosted by hearing your BOV or the large intercooler in the front, or just the fact that its an evo then i wouldnt be worried about it

that and id probably go with some RA tails.

that's a cool turbo badge; if you were to do one. To each his own, nice set of cars. The new STi compares a lot better in handling, to the EVO X, vs all other years of STi.

i am def. thinking about going with the RA tail lights or lightly smoking them and then black the head lights out.

+1 ^ thats what i want to go with but the nittos im running now were the ones i had on my stockers so i swapped them onto the xxr's but i might go with 245's with more of a stretch look. they r good rims and i dont care what people say. they make the car aggressive looking. the only thing is you have to do something with the center caps so what i just did is had our laser cutting machine cut 14ga circle and wrapped them in carbon wrap. they turned out pretty good.

No offense but most of the cars I've seen with aftermarket turbo badges, weren't really turbo. Might make people feel like your car isn't. But do you!

Love the Turbo badge. I would do that. I have the same year and color STi and it's quite fun. At first I thought the styling was a little off but it has really grown on me... Those things slammed with aggressive stance and exhaust just look mean.
