SYE Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 i like the badge but not a fan of chrome, so i had mine colour coded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gieE46 Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 Got a 330Ci I was umming and arring, decided in the end to debadge, my own personal preference, done this with all my cars, think it looks smoother and cleaner. If you hate it you could just re-badge or go for what Sye has done, this looks neat colour coded and it is different. I didn't care what others thought, even if they thought it was a 318 trying to be a 330, I know it is a 330! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M3BIMMER Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 De-badge all the way. I only have a 318ci, so you would expect it to be de-badged. But even if I had an m3, it would be smoothed. I think the vents, exhausts and bonnet should give away what it is That's just my personal choice, being a fan of the 'cleaned' euro look. I sort of agree with this, i woud de-badge all bm's to keep people guessing but even though you know a m3 when you see it, i would leave an m3 badge on because, well because its an m3 and if i paid out my hard earned cash on one then i want people to know its one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daz 330 Cs Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 Anyone that knows anything about Bmw's will have a good idea what you're driving if its de badged . Single exhaust 316 / 318 & 320 IIRC Twin Pipes for 325 /330 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterH Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 lol of course i already know that! But for instance, my neighbour just bought a E46 saloon with a schnitzer exhaust (jealous) but it's a 318 debaged. I thought it would have at least been a 6pot seeing as it had a twin exhaust.... wrong :/ It's kinda like, i know what you got, you know what i got but you don't know i know what you got Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 Er Yeah that is what i said , single for 316 & 318 , then i put 320 IIRC , as in i wasnt sure And he was just saying you didn't remember correctly. I took your post to mean 316's, 318's and 320's have single exhaust so all he was doing was correcting you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daz, apologies for the harshness of my comment lol was just clarifying the issue for those who are unsure Hopefully this is E46 Zone else we got a lot of confused members And he was just saying you didn't remember correctly.
