Did he just do what I think he did? yes... yes he did.
Debating whether I want to debadge my 535i I just recently purchased and peoples opinions on it. Whether it makes the car look ghetto or makes it look clean. I'll probably go with the majority vote on what peoples opinions are here, since I'm pretty much torn 50/50 at the moment.

I say sleek, but that my opinion.
Tough call, but to me it looks more balanced from the rear without the numbers.

How would removing a non-functional chrome item be considered "ghetto?" I would think the opposite were true.
