Last of the Breed or NHRA badges I got a 98 dark blue Formula, but am unsure of what badges to put on my car either the NHRA badges for a formula or the last of the breed badges? I need some opinions.

I think LOB badges belong on 02s only....because that was the "Last of the Breed". I know you can make the argument that its the last body style and all that but the badges even say 1967-2002 on them. So obvioulsy they meant the last year of production. But its your car, if you like them go for it.

I have a set, was given to me, I have a 2002. I think they are a little guady. I am not a fan of any sticker or badging, or anything that wasnt at least avalible stock.
Example: a NON-WS.6 T/A getting a WS.6 style hood, adding the ram air is ok, or if your racing for sponsors and you get contigency money, thats cool. But if your not racing, and its not stock, I do think it should be on there.
Is that my opinion, absolutely, should it be yours? Not always, just what I think. If I started doing the car show circut, I use it for a plaque or poster that showed stuff about the car and I'd use it to accent the car. at best.

The LOTB is nice, I have them on my car, but I figured my 99 WS6 was a last in its own right. The last year you could order a Forumla WS6 in Canada was 99. In the USA it was 2000.
I am going to remove them this winter though for a slightly different look.
I think you can make a case for all of the above reasons. Do what you like though, its your car and you should make your individual statement, just no RICE!

hmm...lets see here...LOTB badges were dealer installs for 2002 cars and NHRA badges came on NHRA cars. why not have a real Formula rather than a fake LOTB or NHRA car?
