The only type of fake badging (other than “down badging”) I think can be cool is when the car has a different name in another market, like the VW Bora.

All just my opinion, of course. Feel free to dress your car up as you wish. Just be cool when it gets posted/roasted here
I considered putting an AMG sticker on mine for shits and giggles, but it never seemed quite right)

Quite a picture you paint! But the 7 series doesn't quite fit in, does it? Although, I guess anything goes down here.

This is whole other level stuff! Dude incriminates himself by starting his own thread about how to fake badge a M Sport model. Epic fail!

I squinted real hard and thought I could gather that it was a competition badge, but it turns into a blob when you try and blow it up.

I also think this up-badging is cool, for S52/S54 swapped cars:



Just kind of subtle and fun.

I remember one guy back in the day that did a full M3 mechanical conversion (driveline, suspension, brakes, all the misc bits) on his 325i, but left the body mostly stock except for the 332i badging. Then he added a couple of turbos and went trolling for Lambos.

428i? 4 x 2 = 8

I've never lived in California. Do drivers in California actually like the "dmv.ca.gov" at the bottom of California license plates?

I'm 2500 miles from California, but somehow I see dozens of California plates every week. Not sure why. (never seen New York plates and they are only a short drive away)
