This is a good way to think about anything displayed on a license plate frame, a statement about support (or sometimes no support). Now all you need is a showline ///M to go to the right of your shadownine 135i.

Thank you for correcting my post. Thought we were on the same side here.

BTW, the word your looking for is shadowline, I think.

Mmmmmmmm.......lol

I think that without any engineering from the motorsports division, the M seems a little unwarranted. I support BMW Motorsports also, but I would not attempt to adorn the car so much that it seems like I wish my car was an M model. We all know what the M stands for, but we also must be truthful enough to know that the M in our cars case doesn't stand for anymore than Marketing. I personally refuse to play into that. I replaced the M on my shifter with the BMW OEM Performance Shifter Kit. And if I had the duckets for the steering wheel, that M would be gone too. Then, my 135i would have no relation to anything of BMW Motorsports. I applaud the fact that the Performance pieces actually have thier own "identity" and do not come off as "M" whore upgrades. I would much rather install the M pieces (such as bushings etc.) from the M3 and take satisfaction and show support in that. But the holders DO look nice. Black FTW.

BMW has been offering M-sport packages (M facelift in Germany) for yeaaaars. I had a E39 M facelift.....M steering wheel, deadpedal, body kit, wheels, and M-sport Fahrwerk II (suspension):

*The pic does not have the M wheels installed...and has a rear decklid spoiler by Zender*
**Also notee the side molding...there is a little insert there where the M5 has a M5 symbol...whereas the facelift version has only a M symbol...I think that says it all as far as "officially" what BMW thinks is allowed to be added to non-M engined cars, oh yeah it also had an lone "M" emblem on the trunk.**
