Default Supercharged Badge

Anyone recently taking delivery have the "Supercharged" badging in place of the "V6T" badging? If not, did anyone who ordered their car ask Audi to do this for them at the factory or did you just wait and do it at the dealership or yourself? Seems like if they plan to switch them (that's the word) and they're using them already for other models, this is sometihng that could be requested during the build, no?

The dealership should have some on hand, just ask them to put it on and throw it in.

The SC badge is currently being used on the A6 3.0T (IIRC, the A6 still have the 3.0T badge on the trunk). As for its applications on the B8-series, they are a dealer installed option named the Alu-Optic trim package.

I don't believe that there is an official word on the badge change for the 2011 cars yet.

You can buy them for $65. Not sure the dealer has them lying around. but if they're willing to swap them at no charge, go for it. http://www.ecstuning.com/Search/ES39...rchargedemblem

I also replaced the V6T on my meteor girl. Aside from looking better and being more appropriate, I like that the carbon fiber seems to match the interior trim.

I really like the look of the "Supercharged" badge and think it is more appropriate for the U.S. market.
