Anyhoozle, cool sticker. I think it'll look great and be meaningful to enthusiasts on the 128.

Certainly helps you get the extra cooling from the factory!

And don't worry, no one is confusing you for that type.

Unless anyone else wants in, I'm going to push out the order.

I love the spirit of the idea.. That's exactly why I bought the 128... It's different and quite unique, even within it's own family.. While a 135 was in the budget, after reading a lot of places and opinions, most of them here, I had to go NA..

Count me in for a pair in white..

I'm assuming we'd pay through paypal?

There's room in the world for both camps - all I'm saying is, you stay in yours and I'll stay in mine. What you are doing is bullying.

Never did I say or imply that the only thing I look at is track times, did I? We bought our cars for many of the same reasons. You know, many of us 135 guys like twisty roads also, funny you wouldn't think so. You think you have a monopoly on driving.
Had my car 3 years and the only issues I've had are, a window air leak, bad wheel sensor, battery recall and reflash the HD radio. Sorry to disappoint. The issues you mentioned earlier, waste gates, turbos and hpfp have all extended warranties which are covered well beyond than the time I will own the car. The car has been, a 'joy' to own. Sorry to again disappoint.
Not bullying, I posted to just advise who didn't know that those stickers are for a 07 vehicle that's not a 128. Most people I know only brand their car with what the factory puts on them. I didn't know there were so many who like to call their cars 130's and put tii stickers on them that didnt come from Germany. Thats cool if that what youre into.
I happen to like the128i, most times when mines in the shop for an oil change or the aforementioned warranty work they've given me one for the day.

Could someone please ban this fool?

In the absence of any action i think we should just ignore him.

Thanks for the education mate, but you must be on a different spectrum to think the 135i own's the tii trademark.

Moving on.
Instead of putting it on the rear bumper, I'm thinking about de-badging my car and replacing that space with the sticker. Opinions? Too big?

[dorkdog]

Sort of defeats the purpose of debadging, no? Plus it might be a bit too big for that area from the looks of it - if it is so large as to curve with the contour of the trunk I think it would look bad.

And no, I am not disappointed that you are happy with your car; I am happy with mine too.

Thanks for the correction, that's what I meant.
I don't think the 135 'owns' the tii I just mentioned the stickers shown was made for that specific concept car, a 135i. Yes, we know about the prior tii badges worn by the 2002 model but a 128 isn't a 2002tii, as we all know.
If you guys dig it have at it. I fully support your right to rebadge your cars with whatever you want.

[jksgoh]

Actually, Bavarian, how do you know its a 135i? can you show me some specs of the concept tii?
I've never seen any specs.

Any chance of getting this interior sticker on the centre console?

That would probably be the easiest.

Possibly, but you would need to find a higher res photo that isn't at an angle.

Back on point. Stig, do you have any idea of turn around on these? I'm pretty excited.

As far as I know, the design and such is good to go, it is just a matter of hitting print for the number requested and the color desired. If I was to guess I would say we are looking at ~2 weeks from the close of the group buy for them to be made, shipped to me, and then for me to distribute them out.

The only other hold up is how long we want to leave this open before we order.

[Solo_M_Tech]

Cool. I'll be standing by.

If Tii is such a important nomenclature for the n54/n55 cowd, why hasn't thee been much interest in the vynil or decals till now in this thread.

I like the Tii idea. Its our own vesion 135iS or ///M135i, after all 128i never got love lol

[jksgoh]

Since we're looking at 14.50 a pair at the moment, better put me down for 2 pairs, cause I'll prob stuff one up!
