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.
 
Most definitely, off. It looks a hundred times cleaner with them removed.

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 say on as well. It just looks too bare without it imo.

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

Guess I'm the only ones who prefers it on the car :S

I like cars better if they are like they were when they left the factory.

Same here.
