let him have the M badge if it means that much to him. we can always just look away if we don't like it (and i don't). but i do i love the way he is so honest about the red paint on the calipers. i agree its the way it should have come. hey BMW, are you listening? please give us the innocent choice while ordering the car on what colour we'd like the calipers to be...

the stickers are noheat decal I dont know how you call it and the paint the same they can support heat.The suspension is oem but my car is lower than yours at the states I think because I cant put 2 fingers between the tyre and the fender and going to leave it in that way.Reference to the M badge I had put it because is all M s.wheel,gearing and doors so who cares about another badge I´m not trying to be an M3 I prefer my car honestly it has the best engine of the bmw´s market from my opinion after the m5´s engine.
Glad you like the car I will try to post more picts I would like to get me a rear diffuser I like the performance´s one most but I would like it for quad system I´m just want to leave the car like the way it should come from factory to me

Do you guys all know that other BMW models aside from actual M cars received the M Badge also?

Was an M535is a wanna be M? It came from the factory with the M Badge.

If there is an M Badge on your steering wheel or shift knob...whats the difference?

As long as it doesnt say M1 or M3, who cares?

Everything looks good.. M badge doesnt look bad.. dont worri about what others say.. hmm but ya i wonder where i can get these "no heat" stickers lol.. and lower susp? i thought all the m suspensions are the same.. maybe because the wheel diameter is wider?

Thank you very much for your comments, right now I would like to fit carbon fiber front grills,a hartge diffuser with a quad exhaust that look like them,B.performance sideskirts,a hood like new m3 oem one and a c.f front lip like the one that vorsteiner sells for the new m3 and then my car will be done for my taste.

Lets see when rissracing come out with a quad system with nice tips the outside one shorter than the iner one and waiting for vorsteiner to make nice hood front lip and a hood liek oem m3.

thanks to all.

Abel, IMO it is a classy machine!

I assume you have standard suspension (sorry if I missed something in the rest of the thread). I am trying to convince my wifey that she needs new wheels on her car and this is what I want, hehehe. Our car is the same colour so it gives a good representation of the end look. Oh yeh, the silver really does give it a factory, on steriods, look :thumbup:

Also what size tyres did you go for?

Have you lowered it??

bro even if u were gonna put an m badge on there u wouldnt put it next the '135i" badge.. u would debadge the 135i and just put 'M' like the M sport versions of the 1 in europe or the Z4's here... either way, if BMW wanted it to have the M badge it would have put it there. just be happy it's on ur steering wheel : )
