Oh BTW its about personal preference like with my car I love my Limited Edition badges cause I like to let people know my car is "limited" haha

Yeah, I know you said you didn't read the other posts, but we agreed that special variants, it's wise to keep the badges.

Special Edition didn't have unique outside badging, so the spoiler rails and hood can speak for those cars, debadge them.

Though in honesty I think ANY special variant of a car (Limited, Anniversary, Daytona, etc) should be kept totally clean and stock, just for the sake of preserving it...

Again as they all mention its personal preference... Ive been playing with the idea in my head since I got the car. I do like people knowing that its a GTP its kinda nice for people to know its not the run of the mill grand prix. However, the concept of no one knowing is awesome too

I agree. Part of the 40th's, Daytona's, and Limited's uniqueness are the badging!

its still a grand prix. people that pay more for a 'special' grand prix are not the smartest. sorry for those of you that own them, but its true.

its like labeling the dump u just took "special edition"


but if instead of badges, we had vinyls like the mustang California specials (GT/CS) you would have smoother lines and still have you badges...a compromise

Yep people who pay more are not the smartest. But only the original buyer paid more(we are assuming). On the used market they price the same as any other GT/GTP.

LOL I added an arrow head from the trunk of a G5 to the trunk of mine.

Special editions actually do have badges on the doors next to the gtp badges.

On a slightly sloped driveway with the car pointed downhill even.. I wasn't at home so I made due with what was available.. Car didn't fall on me so it worked well enough for me.
