LoL, Now they just need to steal some TURBO badges and throw a front mount on the car and they'll be awesome cool... :P

I still can't believe he did this, must love the attention of people going WTF.

Im going to buy some XR8 badges and start putting them on KIA's ;)

It is disturbing how common this practice is. Most popular badge changes here seem to be:

Holden to Chevrolet F & R
VR SS to VZ SS Rear & Door
Addition of B-series XR skirt badging to an AU
Not actually badges but AU XR Fronts to Fortes/Futuras & Bonnet bulges on BA I6 models.

Naturally not to the extreme that is the topic, but still. How do they sleep at night?

N/A maybe ;) It was a pretty darn quick magna though.

To be honest, I'm not sure what all the fuss is about guys fitting Ford wheels to their magnas though? It's just a set of wheels....
