So a member on the other forum was selling "real" HSV badges.

Paint flakes off. 1 day. I think these are knockoff garbage.

I'd say post a name so people can be warned NOT to get them..

besides - everyone know Crazy Paul is the Go-To guy for these things ;)

I'm on my 2nd "V" badge and I bought both of them from Paul. The paint started coming off the first one. I believe at the time, Paul said they had some issues with that. Don't quote me on that though.

You're correct.
There's more than a few old Holden VE's around here with the red coming off the Vflag emblems.
At one point in time Holden ran out of stock of the red VFlags.
It took months and months before they did a new production run & the product got rejected because of a paint issue.
I think the second attempt also got rejected.
It seemed like a 6 month long saga before new badges were available on the shelf.

You're correct.

According to this, if you type enough shit then you have to be correct sooner or later.
