My mate has one on his e46 330i...

He sewed on a Gucci label to the OUTSIDE of his no brand suit

Yeah - that's the kinda stuff these Fagers (some word I made up out of Fake and Badge lol) get up to...!

I love that. The Gucci label thing reminds me of older women at the theater (or opera). The posers have the labels in their fur coats sown in upside down so they can be read by the people behind them when it is over their seat. Tell me that is not awesome. The Dowager Countess would not approve.

: Just saw this

: ... Plus this "///M" was soooooo dirty, double whammy

DragonNeo · 03-24-2014, 05:30 PM

Saw this beat-up " M3 " last year and had to take a pic.

These posers are worse than those fake poser military seal, airforce, ranger on a fake rank, and fake uniforms.

I am watching like a hawk to find any fake AMG, //M, RS, S, and STi, etc.

I recently found a fake "V" on CTS.

///M Power-Belgium · 03-24-2014, 08:49 PM

I'm sure this is the best one....

L8_Brake · 03-24-2014, 08:50 PM

It's always embarrassing seeing non-M cars with M badges

Nothing is worse than someone who poses as military when they're not.

The source of the problem is B.M.W.

http://www.shopbmwusa.com/PRODUCT/36...nterId=2160701

They sell a $7 BMW M badge on their official site which condones this. They should have let that job to the fake market, instead of mildly pissing off their M car buyers. Imagine ROLEX selling a rolex dial that you can put on fake watches. This is what the Germans are doing.

As insignifiant as this seems it WILL make me look at other brands in the future. I guess they don't give a damn for the relatively small M owners base.

It's a pin you wear in your shirt. Not an emblem you stick on your car. All you need to do is go on ebay, or even any one of our vendors here for emblems.

good catch. I searched for "badge" on bmwusa online store and from the picture I thought that was it. I stand corrected if BMW is not selling the M emblem at least. On second thoughts this has to be expected because our M3 is derived from the 3 series chassis. You won't see a GT-R badge on a 350-Z. But no badge can make the unique S65 V8 sound.

GRUESOM3 · 03-25-2014, 11:33 AM

Here's one I got couple of months ago

There are plenty of Nissan's with GTR badges on them.
