Followed a post that someone else put here a while ago.

Used fishing wire to do it, came of nicely and you would never know it had the badges before.

Looks way better now

I kinda like it. Tonight I was in a traffic jam at 22.45 at Rotterdam!! Who can believe that.. It is night people.. go to sleep and let me do my driving.. but anyway I got passed by a very nice black E60 wich was debadged.. I was looking at his tailpipes as good as I could see and the only thing I am sure of is that it wasn't a 545 but a 530, 525 or 520... The car also had the styling 124 rims with the wide rear tires.... I felt bad not choosing those tires they look so damn fat under the car!

But anyhow.. I wanted my car to look executive like and not to sporty so people wouldn't want to race me..

The effect of the debadging works in my case.. I always wonder what E60 is in front of me and it looks so clean!

That is what other people around Hassmersheim were thinking last weekend.

I guess some of them were thinking this some official BMW thing. They were looking at us a little puzzled... They have seen those cars before, but not five at a time... It was so much fun!

your getting old man !!! we all know your secretly adding the FAT rims to the bottom of your christmas list for you wife to buy you LOL

actually you could have a point i have the fat wheels on my E60 and I admit i drive very slowly compared to most people, still i get suprised at how many people want to race, not that I can be bothered, I don't like going to quickly in summer as that means more dead insects get splatted to the car and spoil the look...god now who's getting old

I know I know.. My wife really did not want me to buy the wheels when I ordered the car. They were only 100 euros more in price due to a problem in the bmwprice computer at the dealer..

Still didn't get them because she found them to sporty and wants me to take it easier...
