This is the only true to form metal WS7 badge that I know that has ever been made: (No, it was not a sticker)

Correct me if I am wrong.

SC is a sticker.

Im fairly sure that Kimchee and Rice knows if there will be no more made, as he made them.

(thanks for the great piece, ive got mine sitting on my monitor now, still no car, but bought one for when i find the right car, wish i could have bought more, but was straped for cash in december/january when they were sold.)

The badge looks great, the one i have is top notch, and 98snakeeater (the car pictured) looks awesome.

Ryan.

but i tend to think of a WS7 as a TA thats been modded to be like the WS-6. But instead of faking and putting WS-6 on the hood and car, we would put WS-7 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

suncoast creations from what i understand sells a ramair hood, and wanted to make some kind of badge for the buyers. So they came up with WS7

They might have done private/dealer conversions, i hear they did in 98 when there was the GM ram air shortage (but these are just regular TA's with a hood not any thing more than a regular ta as far as collectibility is concerned)

Its a badge that is designed to prevent posers/fakers, if i put a cobra badge on a GT, you can see how these people woudl be offended. similar to how civics with the Type R stickers get made fun of around here.

The WS6 is an upper level model, and to prevent the "fake" cars running around, they sold a WS7 sticker.

Kimchee and Rice went one step better, and used being overseas to our advantage, and had some WS7 badges made, like the originals.

Ryan.
