Thought this was a funny comparison.

My car is not an M but it came with an Msport steering wheel with an M badge.

So m badges aren't just for M cars. Just sayn.

Yeah, well, the 2015 M235i came with 16.

16 badges say it's an M car. We say it's not.

Yes but those came on the car from the factory so you're not trying to fool people into thinking your car is a higher model car to earn respect....for example a guy I know put s-line badges all over his base audi a4.... or a tercel with a bmw kit or whatever this is

Really as long as you don't try and pass off your car as something it's not I don't have an issue. Then again it's not my car so who am I to judge?

I'd imagine many didn't like the yellow I chose for my car. And many more won't like when I do wide fenders.

I suppose people with real M cars feel that way.

fast1eddy · 08-16-2018, 11:34 PM

I added 4 if these to my car.

Gangplank · 08-17-2018, 05:50 AM

So if it came on the car, or adding M parts that have a badge is acceptable, subtle upgrades/mods.

Adding M badges themselves is a no-no. Bad dog, no schnitzel.

I actually agree with that. BMWs used to be subtle in general. It's what I like about the 135. It's a sports car in common coupe clothing.

Maybe their ego couldn't take it, also why they bought the M in the fist place!

They better call BMW then and get REAL mad about all the M Tech and M Sport shit they've been doing for the last thirty years.

c1pher · 08-17-2018, 08:12 AM

BMW does it, why can’t you? I mean how many M badges are on an M235/240i?

Honestly that's where I'm at. People really hate those little stripes apparently. Haha.

BMW put a bunch of my car from the factory, so adding one more set isn't that weird to me.

Also. I'll be swapping out my M wheels for some APEX here pretty soon. The way I see it, I just allowed myself to add four more since I'm removing them.

You can get some "genuine"m badges direct from Hong Kong pretty cheap too 10 for 1.76.... imagine the possibilities !!!
