Which cars have DECENT looking "Supercharged" emblems?

I thought Xterra had a nice one but its RED! Is there any car out there with Gun Metal Supercharged emblem?

Check some of GM's cars, such as the newer SS monte/impala that now have the S/Ced engine, i know they say supercharged on it in black i believe.


You know, you could always just paint the red Xterra logo, its not hard...

Stillen sells ones that say something like "Stillen supercharged" or "Supercharged by Stilen" or something.

I remember someone taking their SE emblem and notching out the middle line so it looked like SC. You could try that.

I used to be torn over this issue. I wanted a "supercharged" emblem that emulated the Ford SVT F-150's "Lightning" emblem. Then I wanted a Stillen Emblem, but I don't think they sell them (not listed on site anyways). Then I was going to get a couple ebay emblems. I was torn on where to stick them. At first I was gonna stick 'em on the sides of the car on the front door, then I was gonna only stick it on the trunk, and then I was gonna get a hood scoop and put them on the walls of the scoop. But I have, at least for the time being, decided against it. I have a V1 blower so it's loud as sin, but sounds like a black and decker hand saw to the untrained ear. (unless you revv, then it gets that high pitched compressor whine) But the sound wasn't enough, I wanted people to KNOW I am SUPERCHARGED.

So what I was thinking of doing was getting a custom license plate tag that says something like "Vor-Tech". But the triple gauge pod on my window pillar and the whine of the V1 already give me away.

I have always been impressed with those SUPERCHAGED emblems on the xterras (dont know why) but never thought of it since i wasnt SCed. But now when I think about it, i might decide against it since too many ppl wont RUN against me then :-P
