OMg, this is amazing to me. It is a car show for heaven's sake, not life and death. Who the heck cares which emblems you put on and where you put them. I would have been sorely tempted to pry one of them off and shove it up the judge's a$$!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you are the judge who said this, and are reading this forum, then LIGHTEN UP sunshine, it's a replica anyway, and even if it wasn't who the heck cares. I put AC logos on mine AND 'shaved' the trunk (see my pics) because I preferred the look, and I don't give a rat's a$$ if ANYONE likes them or not. It is perfectly acceptable and even appropriate for a judge to say "hmmm...those badges are not authentic young man, and will lose you points in the judging", but "ballistic", and to say "Shelby doesn't like that"...well, let me send you 25 cents so you can call someone who gives a sh!t what ole Shelby thinks about MY replica!!!

Sorry, I shall step down now from the lofty moral pedestal, but this kind of 'judgement' is the kind that makes me want to NOT go to car shows. Luckily, I think this is an exception!!
