Those badges are more an east coast or midwest thing. Out west, they just give you a dealership license plate frame that most people shitcan the moment they get home. When I first saw badges in a new car when I was in PA in the late 1980's I thought it was the most bizarre thing I had ever seen.
That was in RI. Interesting. I didn’t know it was regional. I’m on the west coast now and come to think of it I haven’t seen that
People in Cali would be PISSED if a dealer put an east coast style badge on their tesla or porsche or benz
