Default naming a car.... (and having badges made)

is it too close to ccome up with a name for a car mid build...??

when i started out i had my heart set on "g.force" mostly as a joke.. everyone called their car somthing .. but it seems there are several companies out there with that very name and its alittle lame ... so i ask.. can one change name mid build.. (to throw off the enemy of course) and who can make up some OEM looking side badges with custom text??

im torn between "Malice" and "Malevolent"

It's your car so name it what ever you want. No time line as to when you have to nail down a final or if there even has to be a final name.

I believe a car, sooner or later will let you know what it's name is. Its personality will kind of dictate what it wants be known as.

I assume yours is a four letter word or similar right now. I struggled with the name thing myself. I think its unimportant and probably won't ever call it that after it's done.

Vegas, I agree 100%! Sometimes us little guys think we need a big name like the big $$ magazine guys! LOL

It's referred to as the bucket (of bolts) or the paper weight.
Hope to finish the transplant when I get home from Venezuela on the 23rd.

I also strugle with the name thing. I think of new name I like better than the previous one at least once a month. it's probably never too late to change the name of your car... as long as it's before the car is finished.
