I'm a no badge man,

Although they can look cool,

I'll sit on the fence.

Worked my way through several different badge arrangements on mine.

Standard
MK6 "ESCORT RS" badges with a silver "Turbo" sticker
Mk6 "ESCORT RS" badges with a Vauxhall "Turbo/Intercooler" badge
Focus "RS" badge
and now looking at going back to factory sticker again

Loads of ways of doing it and looking good it really does come down to preference

I like the factory look on the outside.

We have tried to make the outside of the car look as factory as possible with just subtle mods. ok, we can't help the big wheels and the brakes and the roll cage, but you get the idea.

I have a new standard Black badge on the rear but no Ford badge. Instead there is a custom made APT sticker I stuck on as a thanks to gary and Mr C
