260 badges, how much?

Meh, i think its good. If the badges were cheap every bogan in a V6 would be putting them on their car.

I also like how HSV parts arnt easily transfered onto VEs anymore. back in the day of the VT-VX you could make a standard exec look like a HSV GTS for a couple of grand. Kinda a slap in the face of the people who paid the $100k asking price.

I no what your saying, people trying to dress mutton as lamb and make us all look like dickheads.

lol, at least put 285 badges on.... wont be long till 260 badges are as laughable as the old 185i badges
(ie in a world where 3ltr v6's push out 200kw+)

Many people compare the prices of HSV parts to Holden parts, thinking they should be similar. HSV are a low volume manufacturer, whereas Holden are a high volume manufacturer. When HSV parts prices are compared to the prices of other low volume brands in Australia, the pricing structure starts to make more sense...

I never said there isn't much profit in them. What I did say is that if you compare prices to other low volume brands in Australia, and stop thinking of them as Holden's, it will start to make sense. ie: the industry norm.

I use to be in the sticker/badge game. Still am a little bit. Making and selling. These 300 badges I see on ebay for $150 + each! What a joke!!!

I have a HSV GTO with 255 badges on the guards. I am not removing them and I will replace them with 255 badges. Is the car 255? No... More around 500 lol. But thats half the fun I say. People looking and saying ah its only a 255..... lol..

I picked up 3 325 badges for a lazy $25 each. Look identical to the standard ones.

Shop around!

I saw the 325 badges on a VZ SS yesterday.

They were placed flush underneath touching the rear and side SS badges, what a messy look.

about $3.50 and you can make any number you want
