My Ride: A Car
![Default](https://5series.net/forums/images/icons/icon1.gif)
But the 545i isnt really that fast. As far as my quick car experiences, I went from a heavily modded Evo VIII to a CLK55 AMG (hence the username brabusw209amg). Last time I raced my CLK55 to a 545i, I lost. Not that my amg wasn't fast. I was driving down the BQE at 135 mph. I got scared and let off. Maybe I am getting old. Ever since I got this 545i, I havent really went over 85 mph...yet. I can't hear this car's exhaust or engine. It's too quiet!!!
I think I am debadging the car once I get my ACS kit installed. It'll give it a cleaner yet subtle look.

you coming bimmerflex?13th july esher usual place
If I were you, I'd just leave them off all together. I reckon you'll get much more attention without them on. The car looks more like a nice clean M5 rep without the clears. With them it just looks a little "try hard" to me! Don't reckon you'll have too much trouble off loading them there either.

Leave as is. Great vehicle and what does it actually mean in the long run? What are you trying to accomplish? The car is the car...

i honestly think the 545 emblem would call for more races since ppl know what youre packing under the hood, and would want to challenge it
personally i love the clean look of debadged bimmer, its so clean, and as long as you dont do poser mods its all good, hell even my friend debadged his 335 and he smokes all the cars that try to best him thinking that he drives around a 328

Well no one has challenged WITH the badge on...but then my cars is stock right now, maybe if I stick a WRX saw horse spoiler on the back and put a TURBO badge on it I might get that kind of attention!
