Fake Badges

csbear · 05-08-2015, 07:35 PM

Actually, I'm not surprised to see that on a 7 series. Big, luxury, look-at-me-I-have-money limo. Same thing with the S Class.

Performance enthusiasts and people who buy strictly for luxury have such different mind sets.

Saw an X6 with a fake M badge after it..if he had taken the xdrive35i badge off of the doors maybe it would have seemed more legit...

He even put the big m tri color decal across the trunk and hood/front bumper..

"M3" ..328 or 325 I saw on the 110 south today.. he also had an enormous M3 badge in the middle of the front kidney grills

Pmsl at this... Nice

I love this thread, It is truly comical some of the stuff you see.

When I was in High School, the big thing was to slap a SS,RS or Z28 badge on your stock 6 Banger automatic Camaro or a AMX, SST badge on your AMC Javelin.

Why? Because it is their car and they can do whatever they want with it. The purists know better but really, who cares?

Naz24 · 05-12-2015, 10:16 AM

Nothing better than driving past these bozo's in a real ///M. #jealousy

jayyp · 05-13-2015, 10:35 PM

Saw this today .... F30 M328i. Why oh why?!

Really? It's starting to feel like the ///M means nothing
About to put a 328+ on mine and take my M3 badge off

NNJCarGuy · 05-14-2015, 06:01 AM

This thread is funny.. My wife came home yesterday and told me that she saw a new M7. I said, oh did you? She was like, yup, it looked very nice too. After I informed her that there's no such thing she continued to tell me that she knew what she saw and that it was definitely an M7. I then explained that you can get any badge made or purchased and put it on any car. I de-badged her car last night (2014 335 xDrive, sport line, black on black), something I've been meaning to do anyway - I prefer the symmetry.. Let's see if she notices ..

EJT86 · 05-14-2015, 08:56 AM

I put "amg" on the left and "rs" "///m" on the right of the trunk. Then put mopar on the fenders and srt.trd on the windshild banner, si on the grill also put on an "f sport" badge. People think it's the ultimate supercar
