LTW Flag on stock 135i?

Just looking for feedback on whether adding a faint and almost indistinguishable LTW flag on a stock BMW 135i (Jet Black) is a good idea.

I have my flame suit ready, but I would love to know if this has been done on a 1 series yet.

Well it is unique, and I personally like the way you are thinking and it is your car so do whatever in the hell you want.

However, I personally think there would be better ways to spend your $$$ that would make it just as unique that many people are not doing, maybe... yellow H8 halos, painting the roof ski rack rails a different color etc etc etc, decals and such like that are usually reserved for cars that are a little more unique coming out of the factory or coming off a racetrack (like an e36 lightweight, but at the same time look at the e46 CSL, it has bold and understated, no flags etc.....). If you are running 400hp w/ major suspension work I would say paint a flag the size of your doors if you please, but a semi-stock 135 should probably not have it.

I recall seeing a white 135i, lowered, with the motorsports ltw flag on the front corner. Looked okay.

Not for me, but I'd like to see it done.
