I was thinking of shaving my emblems, as well as my door handles.
Just wanted to get some opinions. What do you think about doing this?

Take some pride in the company! Keep the emblems! Or did you mean de-badging the numbers in the back?

De-badge or re-badge in black: YES

Remove BMW Emblems: NO!

The car still looks good without the emblems. Just make sure that it's done tastefully and professionally.

if you shave the handles and put a door popping system on that car someone should smack you in the head.
