    So what do you think ? Better than a Lexus symbol right ;) And don't tell me that the front of the Gallardo is not all Prius.

    Oh and if anyone is wondering I just pushed a whatever plastic card under there all the way around and pulled worked great, rubbed rest of glue of with my hand.

    and the guide pins on the back are:

    A: where the Center joins with the T on the Left side.

    B: at 4:00 on the outside circle.

    Every so often, some one finds PriusChat with the theory that we all drive Prius to be SEEN driving a Prius. :rolleyes:

    Like the guy with a Prius shuttlecraft and the lady with the Prius with Dalmatian spots, you clearly prove them wrong,. Obviously not all of us wish to be seen driving a Prius, at least one wants a Lamborghini with 50 MPG. :mod:

    Cool was a new Bentley with a Hyundai logo replacing the Bentley logo on the trunk. Great inside joke for us car nuts in LA.

    Subtle. But someone's going to call bull eventually. :rolleyes:

    A V10 under the hatch; now that would be impressive....


    I like the plates, btw. They look a lot like mine for some strange reason.

    I'm sorry. You have a nice car but putting the emblems from a different model and brand of vehicle isn't really cool. Especially from a Lamborghini.

    If the car had Lambo doors,

    the badge just might work.

    Otherwise... meh. :rolleyes:

    Maybe it's a West Coast thing? But in my eyes the only cool places for a Lambo badge is on a Lambo.

    Sorry, "Not Cool"! ..... but you still have time to remove the Lambo Logo before too many people notice it!

    Why not a Yugo badge if you're looking for attention??

    Hey, people can add whatever...

    Personally? I'm getting sick of the stick figure people denoting the dynamics of the family owning the vehicle. BUT...I can't stop people from putting it in their back window.

    Personally? If it ain't a Lamborghini? I ain't labeling it a Lamborghini. But it's harmless enough, if you like it.

    My only concern would be that the emblems might attract the wrong attention of some hard core purists and/or Prius hating rednecks...who would exact some misplaced revenge on your harmless desire to drive a "Lamborghini Prius".

    But I'm in a misanthropic mood today....Hybrid Run with The Bulls...if you wish...

    I doubt a redneck could pronounce Lamborghini. :) "Ford", "Chevy", "GM" are all 2-syallbles and easy enough. Throw a "ghi" combination in there, and it is all downhill....

    I am against putting lambo labels on replicas built on crappy Fieros, so it should be obvious where I stand with your decision. :)

    Although since you are in BC I flashed to the Red Green Show episode where he makes a "mid-engined italian sportscar" out of 2 cars and of course duct tape. :D

    Only to a redneck is "Ford" a 2 syllable word, but I get your point :p

    While I wouldn't do it to my car you can feel free to do anything you want to yours because... Well you have a bill of sale. It's yours.

    This is worse than the Lexus badge. Somebody needs attention.
