Mmm,

Too plain - the back end is plain enough anyway - oh yeah - get rid of the two cigarettes poking out from under the bumper (and the ironing board on the top of the boot ASAP).

Get nice S C O O B Y letters now.

I like it.

I prefer the understated look, never any need for a spec list! 2 litre, 16v quad cam, turbo, injection - that looks very need 4 speed.

Having said that I do drive an RA - super stealth!

I can understand why people debadge their cars for a bit of subtlety (with the exception of the 318 and C-class brigade who have aspirations beyond their bank balances). Less is more ! Do not put S C O O B Y lettering on the back unless you want tarring with the barry-boy brush, it looks good as it is.

Square boot lock though - euuuurgh ! Chisel it off !

Thumbs down from me, should have kept the S U B A R U and got rid of the rest. Never mind you can always glue them back on later.

I'll sell you a "B" and you can stick the letters back on to spell BRABUS. Now that really would confuse people.

Or - we could all sell you various letters and you could have:

B A BARACUS

Then all you'd need is some red paint.

Its all a matter of personal choice. I have Scooby on the back of mine. Some people dont like it and thats ok with me. Its your motor I'd suggest you stick with what you like and not worry what anyone else has to say about it.
