Well, the incident with the gravel truck meant that about three-quarters of my G8 needed to get repainted. However, that also meant I could have my totally naked, logo-less G8 now!

I have replaced the Pontiac center caps with Holden ones, but no one know what they heck they are. I have no logos or badges anywhere on my car (other than the steering wheel). The results have been instant. I've seen a lot of people do a double take as they look at the car trying to figure out what it is. The most common answer - BMW.
HA! My G8 beat up your BMW and stole it's freakin' lunch money baby!!!
I have the "V" badge on order (ya I know, good luck with that) and plan to install it on the rear when/if it ever gets off of back order. That will be the only logo I put on the car, which should confuse them even more.
I wish I could have a group of magnetic logos I could rotate on the rear. Would be great to be BMW one day, Audi the next, Mercedes the next, Infiniti the next, Vauxhall the next, then Holden and naked on Sundays!
Cost to fill the holes, sand and smooth, and paint - $157 with tax and shop fees. They had the paint gun out anyway.
