Or you can make a heatshield for a tenner and make it worthwhile.

I don't think I've ever seen Peco mentioned on this site, until now :cry:

Well it doesnt really matter who makes it, as long as whats sticking out the back isnt to "rice" or "chav" and it doesnt sound like a cricket in a bake bean tin.

I say put it on :thumb:

Off topic, but heh. Moofles, didn't most late sports come off the forecourt wearing M badges on the grill and the bootlid?

no i believe you had to get them added as an option...i don't think that many came with the badges. someone will probably correct me though! either way, to me, the badge is wrong, don't care if it's "supposed" to stand for "m-tech" and not "m-power", if it's got the 3 stripes it's trying to be m-power.

watch me court controversy!

i agree hto i think the only model exterior wise that should have one is the m3

inside is all good tho :o

318is and 325is had mtec suspension,, interier bits, better brakes

not the stuff of an m3 but was mtec stuff

that still doesnt warrant the badge in my eyes

oh, yeah, i know that stuff is different - but that's m-tech stuff not ///m stuff hence my case for "no 3 stripes on sports please" lol

it's may as well be called a "sport" package (not sport as in 325i sports, just "sport")

Get it off the car and burn it! Both of them infact.

Go back to standard at the least or buy some proper bits.
