Ferrari F430 - badge or badgered?

This was outside the Fox Museum's car workshop. It was supposed to have been one of the first in Australia (July 2nd, this year).
Kudos to the owner,it wasn't a garage queen. In one month he had already done a track day, and used it as a daily driver.
The reason I was snapping it was that the owner had told me about the prancing horse badges/emblems on the car.
Apparently they are normally level with the paint, and don't stick out, because they are (painted onto the body of the car).
If an owner wanted an embossed type badge (made of metal), it was a factory fitted option and cost an extra ~$5000 (or something obscene like that). And increased the chances of being de-badged/badgered by street punks.
