the only way you should be able to claim that your car is a SVT is if you run the vin and FORD says it's an SVT... Mis-badging is not cool and is lying no matter how you look at it..
Same thing happens in the Cougar community... can a person put the SVT badge on the car if they have the SVT UIM and the SVT TB? NO! some people out there think that simply painting the stock UIM black and adding the plaque gives them the right to add the SVT emblem..
Who has their certificate of authencity proving it is a true SVT? I do! and it makes me damn proud to own one of the few that were produced by the Special Vehicle Team.
SVT's have certain features that identify it is a SVT, please keep those features off your car or don't go all out and claim it to be something it is not.
