V8 badge

If I took the V8 badge from a G500 or 550 and stuck it on the fenders on my E550, would that make me a ricer or poser? I’ve seen C55 AMGs with a plain V8 badge on the fenders, and I thought it looked cool. I think it would look cool on my black E550 as well. Needless to say, wouldn’t be sticking the Kompressor or Biturbo badge on my car because, well, it doesn’t have 2 turbos or a supercharger. But it does have a V8

No more MB:(
Not a poser but E550 is a classy car. I wouldn't add any badging. Either people know or they don't. Less is more!

If you eat rice you're a poser?
