Honestly not hating but the only people who are gonna know what it's supposed to be are enthusiast and ya can't fool an enthusiast

Humans have no idea what a competition package M car is.

I guess to get the look... 🤷*♀️

When is posing okay?

Is posing a bad word?

If they applied the money they spent to mod the car to make it look like an "M" on the purchase of a real one; they probably could of afforded the real thing in the first place.

Its interesting the ///M has become synonymous with the BMW brand. At this point, if I was a non BMW owner it would mean very little to me. Anybody that really cares about the ///M badge owns one and can spot a fake a mile away.

This is the "problem" with BMW putting fake badges on their own damn cars.
No disrepect. But if BMW is putting these badges own their own car then your friend won't be a poser. If BMW doesn't think its wrong why should anyone else care? Just asking and not trying to be argumentative.

Thanks.
