Thought this was interesting and not too totally expensive.

Thanks, could be a nice touch, if done with taste. Seems about the right size for those bare sidecovers.  Or maybe on the toolbox...:)

Hey, If you are ready to sell your car, get AWD, stick 'em on the back and sell it as if it really were an AWD.  Hah, just an interesting idea.  :)

Had a friend who acquired a Volvo 242 Turbo for free and after we determined the wiring harness was toast and the car had other issues we stripped it and sent it Valhalla.

Having a bit of fun with the locals the Geo Metro ended up sporting the Volvo Turbo badges and a traffic stop ensued by the local yokels and registration was ran and questions were asked about the car and its pedigree.  It was pretty funny.
