BTW, your exhaust tips look like they are on the wrong way round.

Doesnt trigger anything in me, the wings/fenders have a solitary ///M but all i think is it looks a little too small for the space on its own? Might be better using the larger ///M from an actual M car

Also I think Pent is right, shouldnt the tips be swapped over? The tilted look is personal (I prefer straight) but the longer tips should be on the inside so the tips follow the profile of the bumper.

I'll have to take a look at the tips again.

I do remember thinking that they should be lined up better but they didn't come with any instructions and I fiddled with them quite a bit before leaving them that way. These are the ones with hose clamps instead of screws so it was a guess as to which was which.........

Thanks for the heads up.

I'm not mad at it, but I do think it should be moved over to the right a bit

I agree it probably would look better if it was shifted to the right a bit. And get the bigger ///M badge.

(Btw I tried getting AliExpress black badge for a few bucks …. ahh nope. The M is too small and the font of the numbers isn’t correct. Thinking of sticking it on my kayak lol.)

Your tips are definitely swapped or rotated. The longer tips normally go towards the center to align with the curve of the bumper.

It looks a little lost back there.

Nothing offensive to me either - BMW plaster their MSport and MLite models with M badges - don't see how this is any different. Agree with the comments on the exhaust tips and the badge could be a little bigger and further up and to the right.

This was how my 120dMSport was delivered back in 2011 - dealer fitted M badge too!
