Holy hell - I saw that too and cursed it to hell. Guess where the boy works? Sunnyvale Pepboys. What shall you have me do to it? But then again, now that you know where it usually sits - what will you do?

Yep that's it! He works at the pep-boys. Not even kidding you. In fact, I went in there asking for some 0w-40.. one guy didn't know that existed and called over the owner of the multi-badge saying "Hey xxxxx, what do you put in your benzo? It's here right?" Then proceeds to tell me they're out of stock so I left. When returning outside the store I found the multi-badged thing and literally dropped my wendy's medium lemonade in disbelief...

That's not all folks.. side emblems read "V8 Kompressor". Maybe he had an engine swap? Have faith? Though at that time he didn't have the spoiler - he must've upgraded since.
