    After the addition of an srt hood & bumper, dechroming & debadging, and the usual diesel powertrain mods, would SRT6 badges be innapropriate? I've seen people stick badges on non SRT cars, in an attempt to pass them off as the real thing (LAME!). But, since everybody knows there was never such an animal (3500 Ram SRT6), would it be recieved as cool??? or lame?

    Opinions?

    In my opinion, adding the badging would be lame.

    It looks good as it sits.

    I'm not much for badges of any kind, (just brainstorming) thats the first thing that left the GCSRT8. The dechroming, and either a SRT, or Rumble Bee hood will happen, but not sure about the SRT bumper.

    Adding the cosmetics would be a menacing look. But for the love that is ALL Mopar, do not at the SRT6 badge. lol

    But, if that is what you desire, who am I to say otherwise?

    Love the 3500 by the way.

    I am with you on debadging. And having had the 2500, I debadged it and the body lines and overall look was awesome.

    Good question, I've seen you out a couple times over the summer, (passing in the other direction). Both times we, (me, wife, & dog) were out in the Challenger.

    I don't think anyone would see it as trying to be a poser or anything like that, but as good as that truck looks now it would just sort of look..... dumb :grin:

    I'm gonna agree with everyone else the SRT6 badge is a bad idea...other than that nice truck, and even nicer Challenger.

    I kinda figured the GC would be a resounding NO. But, I'm bad to brainstorm different ideas. And, I agree, it was a bad idea.
