Rear model badge - Yes or No ?

Post Sat Jul 02, 2005 5:00 pm

Okay peeps. I finally get my car back on Monday, and I can't decide if I should fit the badge or not. I have a shiny new one ready.

I'm not really interested in badging it as anything other than standard, so no 316 options..

I've always fancied the idea of a 333i badge when i've finished my m30 conversion .I saw it on a south african motor years ago and thought it looked cool.

Post Sat Jul 02, 2005 5:49 pm

yours has always been a real " sleeper" 325i on the back just ads insult to injury to the car you have wasted

Post Sat Jul 02, 2005 5:57 pm

325i....... but u know id put a 318i badge on it ...LOL

seriously though... 325i would be cool

Post Sat Jul 02, 2005 6:11 pm

i know how you feel, ian.
because after a few months working on my car, i still cant decide what to put on the back of it

Post Sat Jul 02, 2005 7:18 pm

some1 came up with an "ish" as in "320ish" idea i think im going for that, all i need is a S and an H

Post Sat Jul 02, 2005 9:26 pm

Leave the badge off!

Let the poor s*d you've just wasted figure out what you've got under the bonnet

Post Sat Jul 02, 2005 10:14 pm

badge it as a 325i, it will always look wrong without a badge on it

That's pretty

Craig! Lovin' it!!

No badge !

everyone will assume 325i anyways because of the obvious sporting intent of the massive brakes M8

.

only reason mines still wering its label is there a tiny rust spot lurking below :lol:

325i badge

Post Sun Jul 03, 2005 10:23 am

Id say keep the 325i badge, just my 2p's worth

Post Sun Jul 03, 2005 1:43 pm

325i badge is a good plan-just looks damn cool on the bootlid!!

also means that anyone you waste in a decent car will be like

Post Sun Jul 03, 2005 1:52 pm

325i badge for sure, it'll make em think 'no fcukin way is that a 325i' and then they'll be stumped as to what the engine is

Post Sun Jul 03, 2005 2:25 pm

Definately stick the badge on

My 2.7 has the original 320i badge and it's made a few curious folk ask what's under the bonnet after they've been wasted by it

Cheers,

No badge. Make people wonder.

Post Mon Jul 04, 2005 3:38 am

put the 325i badge on make it look original as possible just make sure its put on the right place! i hate it when people put the badges on and they are miles out.

Post Mon Jul 04, 2005 7:44 am

No Badge, looks cleaner at the back.

I always hated the BMW lettering from that era, its too big.

Post Mon Jul 04, 2005 8:07 am

I reckon the 325i badge.

Think they just look smart (in the right place as said up there)

Post Mon Jul 04, 2005 11:35 am

no badge.

like a smoot look on a black car

and keep em quessing

Post Mon Jul 04, 2005 12:07 pm

Post Mon Jul 04, 2005 4:32 pm

KOMPRESSOR badge ?

Post Mon Jul 04, 2005 11:24 pm

put an "L" plate

that should get u a few races just for larfs!

as you shoot past u could let go of the wheel and shrug your shoulders confused like " i dont get it either, arnt they all this fast?" .. and then drop 3rd and seyaaaaa

Post Tue Jul 05, 2005 4:08 pm

Either the adapted number '2' as shown, or just a 3 badge!!

Many with question it either way!! Not as shown as it looks too much like 320i....

Post Tue Jul 05, 2005 7:57 pm

I'm going for a simple BMW lettering style rear badge and maybe turbo too.....so...BMW Turbo or something like that.
Could I suggest BMW 3.2, subtle yet informative, to those that know it'll certainly cause a few thoughts to pound round the brain.
Can use any 32? badge or maybe a VW 3.2 badge.....just me thinking with my fingers again...nice car by the way

Rear model badge - Yes or No ?

No rear badge or standard 325i badge ?
