I generally am not a fan of badge deletes, but it looks out of place on there. And it won't be like when I see an E36 with a delete and just assume he is hiding the shame of owning a 318i :lol:

Round here most 318i badges end up being replaced by an 'M' badge. :lol:

I'd definitely take it off. I quite like when people with top-spec cars debadge them.

When my father used to own an E36 M3 4 door he debadged it, and he liked the fact that it looked like a normal E36 Sport other than the mirrors and wheel.
This ideology is what I totally agree with also.

I can't stand when people have M badges..especially worse when they're badged M760iL V12 (this car actually had all this on the right hand side of his trunk) and more V12 badges on the C pillar, the front wings, the grill (M on one and V12 on the other) oh and the quad exhausts and other chrome trimmings (yes taillight and panel borders/surrounds) he put onto E65. Now that's a man (with probably huge testes...) that lets his badges do the talking - for when he's not there.
 
I'm torn on this. This car? Yeah, the back would look better with the badge off.

But on cars like a Porsche, yeah, the world should know that I have a Turbo S. I worked hard to get something that wasn't a Carerra 2.
Same thing on BMW's or Mercs- I need people to KNOW that I have a 335xi, not just a 320i... Same with a C63 as opposed to a C300.

For sure on a Jag though, take the badge off.



And same here too- 318= M3.

Like the guy who got pulled over for having (loud) quad pipes on his "530d"? :D That one was epic.

There's an M5 Touring in Edinburgh with 520d badges on it. Got the proper M wheels, quad exhausts, wing vents, everything. Everything but an M5 badge.

I'd actually take the wheels off, too... if 18s would fit around the brakes...
