Question for MARK

Post by MNspiderman »

Mark, I was checking out your abarth badge on ebay. Very reasonable price by the way... I have a question. Where it says: You are buying a custom Abarth-inspired hood or deck badge for the Fiat 124 Spider. Does that mean its not an exact replica and it is your design based on the abarth badge? So there is something on this badge that makes it not exactly like the abarth badge. Or am I reading into this way too deep, and it is a replica? Dam college class called "thinking power" makes me think of this stuff. Wish i never took it. So your input would be helpful to me.

Thanks
JEFF

Good question. I have the same ? as well. But for the wheels center caps, I need four...

So maybe we can get both answers in one thread?

This is the other style I see for sell by other vendors:

Would be nice to have an option with the Italian flag as the background...

The scorpion and colors are "borrowed" from the Abarth badges. They never made a hood badge that I'm aware of, just the side badges. My hood badges say FIAT overtop of the scorpion. The wheel emblems obviously don't. I would expect the Abarth badges to be copyrighted, so I'm using the Abarth influence for my badges.
Hope that explains it.
