It is illegal to change the badge on a car.

1. Changing the car logo without authorization infringes upon the exclusive registered trademark rights of famous brand cars. Because a registered trademark represents the image standard, quality requirements and many other contents of its products, replacing the logo of a low-end car with the logo of a famous car will have an impact on the image and reputation of a famous car. As the user of an infringing trademark, the car owner's unauthorized use of other people's famous car trademarks without permission also constitutes infringement.

2. Modifying the vehicle logo without authorization violates the law. According to the Road Traffic Safety Law, it is illegal to change the vehicle logo without permission. According to the relevant motor vehicle registration management regulations, vehicles cannot be changed at will after they are registered at the vehicle management office.

Currently, the law does not impose severe penalties for behaviors such as changing labels. It can only impose a fine of 20 to 200 yuan and order to restore the original status. At the same time, it will definitely not pass the car inspection, because it is a modified part, and the model cannot be determined after the label is changed.

Article 16 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law" No unit or individual shall engage in the following acts:

1. Assemble a motor vehicle or change the registered structure or structure of a motor vehicle without authorization, or feature.

2. Change the vehicle model, engine number, frame number or vehicle identification number.

3. Forge, alter, or use forged or altered motor vehicle registration certificates, license plates, driving licenses, inspection marks, and insurance marks.

4. Use the registration certificate, number plate, driving license, inspection mark, and insurance mark of other motor vehicles.

The behavior of changing the label can be regarded as changing the characteristics and model of the motor vehicle without authorization.

Extended information:

"Copycat" cars that have changed their logos will definitely not be registered. Although some car owners will adopt the approach of "get the license plate first, then change the logo", they will definitely not be registered during the vehicle inspection. It will not pass, and a fine will be imposed if found out.

If a car owner changes the vehicle logo without authorization, it will be inconsistent with the vehicle brand registered with the vehicle management department. If a traffic accident occurs, it will cause trouble in the subsequent handling of the accident.

Warm reminder: Those who like "copycat" luxury car owners should pay attention. Don't think that the car is your own. You can make any changes you want as long as it does not affect driving safety. If you accidentally infringe your rights, you will be punished by law.
