i have a gt-s, but i want to know from you guys if this idea is stupid. and i am aware that my car isn't vvt-i. just a little something to trick people into thinking that it's a GT. just debating doing it because most people don't know what vvt-i means. so what you guys think?

I think it's just as bad as GT people putting on a GT-S emblem. Just leave your GT-S badge on or just debadge it. A lot of GT's debadge theirs anyways, so some people might think yours is just a regular GT. :chuckles:

There's a really sweet custom VVTL-i badge you can get from one of the members here. Do a search -- I say go for that badge.

i completly debadged the hatch on my gt-s and put a carbon fiber trd badge where the gt-s badge used to be. it actually looks pretty clean. if anyone wants to see how it looks. pm me with their email and i'll email some pix as soon as i can find them

vvti just means variable valve timing with intelligence, so most people that know something about cars will know what it means.. and the people who dont, dont give a rats behind about if the car is a gts or gt

/\/\ yea, that's true. people really don't know sh!t here where i live except for VTEC. that's all that a typical asian person here where i live, can just talk about. sounds so stupid to hear about someone's car then all of a sudden someone would be like--> "is it vtec!?!?!?!?!?!". man that's annoying.

i've never seen the vvtL-i emblem before. does anyone have a pic of it? i'm interested :)

can you debage a 2000 GT by flossing, or is there screws

Heat it up and then use floss, or something stronger like a fishing line. Use goo-gone to remove leftover residue.
