Not a BMW, but the two ends of the spectrum of "nope" imo.

I actually don't mind the livery on the C63, but that "AMG" sticker on the hood is hideous. No words on the c300 -> "AMG" badge conversion lol.

The only reason I'd ever put a fake badge on would be to undersell my car. Putting a 320i badge on my 340i (not that I'd *actually* do it). Wolf in sheep's clothing and all that.
The thought had crossed my mind, but I'd never be able to violate my car like that.

Just debadge it and leave it up to others’ imagination.
It’s kinda cool on the 1-series because all cars look the same (only 2 tailpipes on the left side).

A loooong time ago, I bought a new 340Z [ETA: fat thumb, 300Z] turbo, removed the turbo badge. A coworker looked at it and said too bad you didn't get the turbo. I smiled.

Remember to remove the fog lights on the 128i to complete the deception.

I thought it had to be a typo, wasn’t sure which one though. I always wanted that Anniversary edition, the silver and black one.

I've had two 1984 300ZX AEs in the 80s and 90s . Great cars. I want to get another one someday.

Very creative on the exhaust tips! And it looks like the owner had a racing tow strap screwed in but someone stole it. People are so jealous.

This thread reminds of a conversation I had with my girlfriend, where she said there are girls who refill luxury brand makeup cases (Chanel or what not) with cheap drug store brand products (powder, lipstick ...).
