Fake Badges

TahoeM3 · 05-24-2016, 04:49 PM

I saw an "M428i" convertible a couple of days ago. I grabbed a pic but it's blurry.

I attatch a GTS emblem next to M4. Best fake badge!

BanjoPaterson · 05-27-2016, 05:40 AM

Seen as I drove a friend home.

EJT86 · 05-27-2016, 10:10 AM

those of you that take a pic of these posers while in your "other" car. i wonder if they see you guys and think you're admiring his "M" car lol

yidgyi · 05-27-2016, 03:51 PM

Oh man, I went to a meet last night and some guy in what I thought was an e46 M3 was parked so I parked next to him. After a closer look, the owner bought a e46 M3 body kit and installed it on his 328i.

Wish I took some pictures, but forgot. Buddy of mine asked him about the car and if it was an M3 and he was fully confident it was. He parked like an inch from the wall so we couldn't really see the rear of the vehicle, but when he left he had the twin side exhausts from the stock 328i and a M3 rear bumper.

I know it was an intentional move but funny

Barathon · 06-01-2016, 02:22 PM

Saw this beauty.

Bassam · 06-01-2016, 04:59 PM

Not a bmw but couldn't resist

shadowkat · 06-01-2016, 05:49 PM

My friend works in the yard at an auto recovery yard (if you don't make payments, he'll see your car!) and collects badges and emblems.

I just put it up to take the pic, didn't stick it on though

Bartledoo · 06-05-2016, 01:03 AM

Getting off the beltway in Alexandria today I saw a completely stock 328...except the 328 badge was replaced by our M3 badge!!!

Face15E · 06-05-2016, 06:49 PM

I saw the exact same thing on a black 328 going down 95 South. My wife even commented on the visual differences!
Cheers,

The ever so rare Type R X-Type 2.5 R

Bartledoo · 06-06-2016, 07:12 PM

Is that an Audi S Supercharged badge under the 2.5 as well!? Awesome

BSM n54iS · 06-07-2016, 08:13 PM

Was so glad I found this thread yesterday, went through the whole thing lmao!

. And low and behold the gem of an M I come across on the way home from work today lol, had the most ///M stripes I've ever seen! Was on the highway so excuse the pic..hard to see but replaced the 328i with an awful m badge, stripes on every single door handle, roof, front bumper and what you see here:

ElSenor · 06-10-2016, 03:08 PM

Been seeing this 3-series around for a while. Never have my phone on me when I see it because I keep my phone in my car while at work. Well, I was on my way home earlier this week and as I'm leaving the parking lot I see it. Snapped some photos on my way out.

Enjoy!

I image the person has probably spent enough money getting it to look like an M3 that they could've bought an M3 by now.

I told ElSenor this already but I still find it rather funny. That dude pulled up behind me at the gas pump the other day, I looked at his car then at him and he couldn't/wouldn't look at me lol. I didn't say anything but I could see him thinking oh *!@# this dude has a real M3 and he knows Im faking.

Maybe he just like the looks of a M3 but rather have the beast motor of a Prius....

: It actually looks pretty good.
