1speedbike · 06-24-2009, 04:00 PM

I flat out debadged but looking at the pics on here I'm thinking of going for the black ones! Now I just don't know exactly where the original badges were.. :/

Would love to, but I'm headed out the 26th-31st.... anytime after that would be cool though

No problem

It's amazing how it almost transforms the look... I'm not a fan of chrome

because i'm not a fan of de-badging, i still want everyone to know it's a 135 but with a stealthy look

fatjoez · 01-15-2010, 02:31 AM

fair call. i'm more of a sleeper lol

Hot DAMN, just saw this- looks awesome

I like keeping the badge on there...people always come up and ask me...WHAT IS THAT? Not many have seen a 135 before I guess.

Jcrewsn · 01-15-2010, 11:34 AM

^ thanksNick ... ordered them from you guys

Has anyone just sprayed the existing emblems with plasti-cote?

Ya that was a nice touch. Blurring the plate so no one can find you but then again you had to blurr your dog just in case someone recognized him as well.

I just did the Matte on my jet black 135 and I love it. I almost got the gloss.

bmwsam · 01-20-2010, 12:02 AM

All the pictures look good, I'm going to have to do this soon. I thought about debadging too but there are so few 1ers around here that I like having them on. I was asked if my car was a 6-series the other day...

a heat gun and dental floss should be suffice
