Not that I have an svt badge on my car, but to the average joe, they see the svt bodykit and think its an svt. I could turn what you said around and say that SVT's give me a bad name because they make me look slow.  It could go either way.
The man does have a point....
I'd have to agree non-svt's that are kitted properly do look a tone better than stock tours!
Here is a shot of my Se:
It has most if not more upgrades that an SVT and has the kit and engine components to pass, yet its still not an SVT nor do I claim it to be.

On the way to school today I saw a t-red contour se with an SVT badge on the trunk. placed there perfectly. I think that car may have gotten injto a wreck or something and the person may ahve found an svt in a junk yard or soemthing becasuse the logo was in the stock location and there was a rather old lady driving the car. It didnt bother me much I actually got excited and thought it may have ben a fellow CEGER to meet up with. After I noticed it wasnt I simply went back to my driving. It doesnt bother me much because people can do whatever they please to their cars this is why most people palce TYPE R stickers on everything but when it comes down to taste... then thats a whole other topic.

i am of the opinion that you do whatever you want to make your contour look better. if you want a kit, the best one to get is a svt kit. dont badge it as an svt though.

+1 especially when there is basically no good aftermarket for the contours in terms of bodykits.

After that all it would have been cheaper to just buy an SVT.
