back to topic: I had put black letters on my car after i took the stock chrome ones off. I liked it for awhile but then i got sick of them and took the black ones off. I like the Debadged look!

Its a tough one because I thnk the look of debadged is so much cooler but at the same time I agree people assume you have the lowest model and are trying to hide it-since most people cannot recognize the subtle differences.
That is why when I see a 325 or 328 do it-they are so different with single v dual exhausts that I definetly think or hope they are doing it for fun!
For me with a Jetblak care I simply love the look and personally dont care what peopel think. Also 99 percent of people dont even know what the difference is between a 530 or 550 badge-as far as what is "better" so for the most part is si only other car people that will notice-and personally I am way out of the age group to go racing or anything. I go to work at a hospital as a doctor-I am not thinking many people are caring what number is there. You get the drift . Now 5 years ago at age 23 I would have had a diferent story-except I had a chevy tracker-so it was a moot point!

Well guys im thinking of removing the BMW tatoo on my 545i's rear. What do you prefer and does anyone have pics of theirs debadged?
At the same time surprising the occasional jackass in their G35 who thinks they're up against a naturally aspirated 6 is fairly entertaining.
