If you could have your own customised bonnet star..

Imagine for a moment that you could design your own 'personalised' bonnet star, what would it look like?

I'd probably swap the Character from Wallace & Grommet (Dunno which is which) with a naked Angelina Jolie!

Just to put this back on thread...

You can see quite clearly the issue of concern from this magazine photograph. The use of Angelina Jolie would be totally unsuitable in this application.

Bam Margera (of Jackass fame) has one on his S600:



This looks like a Photoshop, but ive seen the episode with it in.

I'd put a BMW propellor on mine, it would make me think I am driving a proper car, not a rusty pile of unreliable overpriced junk

No pictures, but I was once replacing the front badge on an old 308D van (pre 1995 sprinter model). On the old vans the badge is huge (I'd guess around 8 inches +?), and I tried putting it up to the bonnet badge on my W202.
I rather liked it stuck up on the bonnet, I thought it suited it compared to the 'normal' badge, and was tempted to change it permanently.
