Saw 1.8 fender badge today

Got a truck with three C-coupes in today at the dealer where I work. One of them had the 1.8 badge on the fender, and this is the first one I have seen like that. I don't know why the other two didn't have it, except that they were both 6-spd, but I don't see why that would matter. Anyway, I don't think it looks that good with just 1.8 on there.

Also, all three had a little rubber piece on the back edge of the wind deflector. Don't know what this is for except to maybe deflect a little more air. But it is only about 3" wide and less than an inch tall in the center of the roof. Again, this is the first I have seen this on an '03. This doesn't look good either, but I wonder what it does and if it deflects air, how well does it work?

Just thought I would let you guys know. There was a thread before on this and I don't think anyone had seen the badge, except in pictures.

I knew I wasn't seeing things!

Well, maybe the spacemen...



I noticed it as well in the new "peep-show" TV spot (not really discernable as a "1.8" just that there is a badge behind the wheel).

Cheers, BT

No, you have it wrong, it is Rodney King Rodney King when the morons jumped on you. After the million dollar settlement then you can say can't we all just get along. Just my 2 cents.
