Fake Supercharged badges are just so "last year"

What you really want (it you can afford it!) is one of these badges on the back of your RRS. As far as I know your friendly local dealer's accessory outlet cannot sell you these at any price unless you buy the FFRR in Autobiography trim

No no Umberto - you have the real thing, you don't need a "fake" supercharged badge. It's aimed at those owners of nonS/C RRS's who like to give the impression that they have one! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

I said something once, on a thread "Dressing down", and I got a right earful from everyone saying "we don't do that sort of thing".
I won't say anything again Embarassed RRS 4.2 S/C. Zermatt. Tints. Stormers. 150+ paint defects, wonkey bonnet, scratches, detached doorseal. suspension faults. To sum it up, a �60k pile of cr4p!

Yes, and I was hoping my Autobiography badge would remain a bit unique (I got it for free* from the guys at Overfinch USA when I purchased my exhaust, along with a set of their sill plates...), but now that "Nosey Tim" has posted the message, there goes my "exclusive" status. Watch out for the invasion of the autobiographed Sports! Anyway, I feel like I qualify for that badge considerig the money I have been throwing at my car for upgrades galore... Wink Wink Wink

* "Free" is a relative term of course, considering I handed Overfinch USA $2K, and change, for their cat exhaust.

Umbertob, at $99 + shipping to the UK I doubt you will find that many of them make it across this side of the Atlantic, you remain safe in your "uniqueness"!

Autobiography or not, your RRS still looks good Umbertob. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

I never could understand why people put badging on cars to make them look like the higher priced models. I think its unfair but to each his own. I understand you have thrown alot of money into your car so have I.

I have a supercharged and spent alot of money on it doesnt qualify me though to stick a murcielalgo badge on it. Just my two cents. I hope not to offend you. I always suggest that if you buy the lower priced model to debadge it as it will look cleaner and when a supercharged does pull up to you he doesnt think your a poser.

Ehm... That's not a Supercharged badge on my car. There is no such thing as an "Autobiography" Sport, but there should be. If there was, it would look just like my car. That's my story and I'm sticking to it! Wink

I actually live in Altadena, perhaps we will meet at Paseo one of these days (look for the stunning white Autobiography Sport in the parking lot Very Happy ), or at the next SoCal RRS meet... Otherwise, you can probably catch me zig-zagging on 210-134-2-5-110 fwys (that's right out-of-towners, a 5-freeway daily commute), Mon-Fri, as I head to work, late as always.
