TURBO badge

install was easy......10 min

turbo badge comes with sticky stuff in the back.

protege badge has pegs and glue.
best thing to do is press on the pegs from the back while u floss the badge from the front.

then use some "goof-off" to take the glue residue off, clean with rubbing alcohol, and attach the turbo badge.
it can only be put one way in order to hide the holes, so make sure u align it right before u press on it, cause the sticky stuff in the back is strong as hell.
 
The reason y porsches have it is cuz the car is called the turbo... u know 911 turbo or 996 turbo.... Even vw is the VW bug turbo... Turbo is part of their name.
our car is call the mazdaspeed protege... notice how the name does not have the work turbo in it. thus taking off the protege and puttin on a turbo badge makes it sound like u wish u had a 996 turbo or worse a vw bug turbo... At which point i would question ur sexual preferenece....

I should not prejudge people... However, most poeple that sees that turbo sticker will hopefull think of 911/996 and not Beetle.... but u never know...

*I hope u get picked up by a gay guy for putting that on ur car... just to show you how gay it looks to have a wannabe car*

Dr. Sound... At least u get credit for being original....
 
Yes i know i need anger managment classes... But driving in Atlanta traffic everyday does this s*** to me... I hit traffic on the highway at 12 o'clock noon today on an otherwise empty road and i was going on average of 10mph..... I hate dumb ***** they should not be allowed to drive....

Damn dude, cool it....i think it looks nice....IMO....but thats cool...you are intitled to yours as am i am to mine
 
i kinda like the badge, however, i also agree. it woud be like putting a DOHC sticker on your car. yes, we have DOHC engines, HOWEVER, the DOHC sticker is generally found on Hondas. so do we have it, yes. is it really kosher, no.

and this thread was started by someone who called the gas tank CF cover rice...hmmm....

btw, why the **** is this in the MSP section?
 
actually it does not have any refference to VW or porsche........

if i follow your logic than any car that has "turbo" on it has turbo in it's name.
what about saabs, volvos, schkodas?

i dont "think" that i have a porsche, nor do i want my car to be one.
i just likes the way it looks, it's originality on MSP, and the fact that it looks like it belongs there more than the "protege" emblem.
so far noone has confused my car with a porsche......thank god, cause then i would have to kick that person in the nutz.
 
yea i dont agree with the line of reasoning that the badge would make me think the car was a porsche.
 
Saying you can't put that turbo badge on means that no one with an MP3, P5, or regular protege sedan could use a Mazdaspeed badge. And I know there are quite a few people on here with them, or stickers that say Mazdaspeed. Just like Vic said. It doesn't mean you want your car to be something else. It's just a badge showing off the fact that you have a turbo. I kind of like it, but If I did it, I have a better idea in mind;)

What's your better idea?
 
One that I wanted to try was using the badge from an older MR2 Turbo('91-95). They all used color matched badges, so it was kind of hard to see it until you got up close. I'm just not sure about the font, because I remember it looking fairly plain. We'll see though...

vic did you get yours from the vw dealer?
yeah dude
my mom was thinking of trading in her Golf for Passat, so we went to a VW dealer in the valley to check out passats........and then while she was looking at cars Marat and I got 2 badges.

hehe, they didnt even ask why :)



P.S. how the car running?
 
why pay for delivery and wait?
with tax it was arround 16-17 bux

but u're right celdrige, that's the one!
 
It is kinda nice too be a "sleeper" though... most people think I drive a riced out protege. ;) Hardly anyone knows that we have a turbo.
 
I personally think it looks hot. I read earlier that you have to be careful lining up the badge to cover the holes. Do think this would leak? What was the part number for this badge?
