Thanks God! Peugeot is a French Car

Can someone imagine "WHAT IF" Peugeot 308 THP is a Japanese car? Probably on the back or around the car one will find stickers, badges and emblems of any combination of the following letters/words...

1.6E . DOHC . 16v . VVT . Multi-Point Pgm FI . Twin-Scroll Turbo Intercooler . 4AT Adaptive . Tiptronic . ABS . EBD . ESP . ASR . DSC . 6 AirBags . Dual-Zone Digital Climate Control . Car of the Year . International Engine of the Year. bla...bla...bla...

Thanks God! Apart from the word "PEUGEOT" and the lion emblems there is only one sweet and simple looking badge, "308". Dalam pada itu pun nampak sangat tidak kena pada tempatnya apabila Nasim tampal "NAZA" dan "Turbo" berhampiran dengan "308" badge - looks too crowded there.

I think 99% of the owners have already removed or relocated them. I've relocated the "Turbo" badge on to the grille just in front of the intercooler.

Mine still intact. Actually i quite like it. It will prevent some from challenging .... but cons side is that it will also attract some to challenge you ...

But anyhow, your at front also nice. Was thinking of buying another to paste in front ..haha ... (end up like ah beng car)

I took mine off...clean and simple. No need for the Naza and turbo logo.

Vern, Alfred,
Both of u r doing the right things. Just a matter of personal preference actually.

To be honest, I do not look down at what so called "ahbengs" - they are part of our complex society that make our culture mix unique. At times I'm inclined to be like one too.. ha haa..

Even the TURBO logo was fitted locally. The original 308 THP don't have turbo logo

was thinking bout a rear spoiler also. The nzline was a bit too small for my liking ... I felt the 308 was a little bald on rear top ...

Alan, continental cars don't carry too much stickers as I mentioned in the post. But some ppl like to 'personalise' their cars... of course too much of those will look like Ahbeng one. Little-little OK la...Verm, me too looking for the rear spoiler. Don't like NZline plastics though. If u decide to order pls get one for me okay. Seriously!
