I would've liked the car if you hadn't stuck an SI badge on the back. It's one thing to leave the badge on the grill out of fear of messing it up when taking it off.. a whole other story when you actually stick an SI badge on the back. +1 for the car, -1 for the Si badge.

I think he just got the trunk swaped and probably hasn't had time to take it off.

The 1 minute it takes to yank the emblem off and the other minute to clean off the adhesive?

He did a trunk swap and took a picture. Get off his sack :x. Also on the front grill you can screw it off.. I shaved mine and repainted it

I did the trunk swap and then went straight to school, where I took the pictures. Dont worry, the Si emblem is already gone.
