Hopefully !!!!!!!!!!!! getting my front and rear clams changed due to bubbling. Thought i may take advantage and ask them not to fit the griffin badge on the back and fit the Opel badge myself on receipt of the motor. Who thinks it looks better? Not sure if you can get them easily for the front too + wheels?

Not for me (just don't like the logo, and do like the griffin) - but you fit what you prefer :)

I have swapped steering wheel centre and alloy centres for the lighting bolt as I think it looks better. I have de badged front and back to give it the less is more look!

erm leave off...

I had an opel badge on my first VX... cos it was irish and should have had an opel bade as standard. (see my sig for the speedster no V and the opel badge in the middle. Only problem u got it the speedster has the straight V.

I miss that car cos it stood out even more than the VX "into the clouds... ahh the speedster........" smashed to fook she is now tho.

But yes an opel badge is perfectly plausable my son. why not Opel made vx220's they were called Speedsters and theres plenty still about.

I wouldnt put a BMW badge on cos its not a BMW but frankly it IS an opel just the UK variation of the same company.

My 2nd Speedster is a VX and currently has the VX badge and my own custom hand made viper badge on the bonned with VX in its mouth. (only a small badge tho)

Personally I would go for removing tha badges completely and getting this

OPEL is just Vauxhalls european version, the cars are the same!! Where as Ford / Aston Martin are completely different cars...so its hardly the same!! I see your point if the model of the car was different....but its not.
