I've seen carbon fibre BMW badges but nothing else. The X Cars don't seem to suffer as badly from the decal variations that some of the other bimmers attract. Not that you wold be doing anything tasteless. I've seen some horrors on some of the 3ers. But then again, some of them just make me laugh. 316i with an M3 badge, turbo decal, tea tray spoiler and normal size (narrow) wheels on it anyone?

All of our bimmers are debadged as those who know their cars will know which version I'm driving - albeit that's a bit harder with the X6 as only the 'M' and 50i variants look any different from the others.

Ouch! :D

You could always put 'Byeeee' there. It will probably have the same effect as a bumper sticker my Dad brought me from California which said 'Eat my Dust' had when attached to my 1.6 Cavalier. I ate a lot of dust that year!! :oops: :headbang:

He thought he was being kind.

Seriously though, I can't think much could go in that gap as there is not much room.

Seriously though, I de-badged mine as I prefer the clean look. I know what I drive, and as put earlier in the thread those who know know what I drive too, I just don't feel the need to advertise it and have badges or graphics all over the place.
Just my opinion on this one.

Just put BMW Graphics into Fleabay and this lot came up - any use?

There genuinely do not seem to be many decals out there. But I did see that you can buy wanna be 'M' stick on side grilles - not that I'm suggesting them for one moment. :o
