    Original - some things are a matter of tradition and not personal taste, especially at a Ferrari...

    The black one might work on the right car, but no way on the CF version. I'll stick with the traditional one, myself.

    The only improvement I've ever seen on the stock Ferrari badges are the hand painted fender shields.

    That Mona Lisa, would she look better in carbon ?
    No offence but if the yellow nose badge has been good enough for all those wonderful cars up to the current F1 car, its good enough for you and me.

    Agree on the shields! In fact I have them painted on my 599. Also the car is black so I opted for the OEM front badge in the end. The shields are a bit darker but it works. I would probably use the black badge on a red or yellow car ...

    The black one is bad, and the CF one should be burned.

    Some things just shouldn't be "kustomized"

    I agree. Leave it. Its tradition and there are reasons behind all the color choices. If you want to do a custom touch, change the wheel caps or put on a CF fuel filler door.

    Leave the original where it belongs.

    The outside two make nice belt buckles.

    Lives have literally been lost forging the reputation that the original badge represents. I'd respect that history and go with that.

    It also happens to be 100x better looking than the others.

    This car looks like someone bought a stock F12, took it to a guy in the valley, and said "make it look like a hot rodded Nissan outta one of them Fast & Furious movies".

    I believe the middle one is a genuine one. There is something wrong about the other two.
