+1000....I can see putting them on if they needed to be cut out of the fender and served some sort of a purpose, but since they are stick on...absolutely NOT!! Geez that would be really GHETTO!!!

prob tricky and you prob need a steady hand but doesnt sound that difficult. those who have m5 can chime in though....is the m5 side vent just a "plug in" type of vent or does it connect to anything behind the fender? ive considered the vents but way to scared to cut the fenders....

Without knowing how it will really look when its on I say go for it. (your money not mine) Keep in mind there are lots on here with euro stickers on their lights so what is the difference really? Its not like your putting chrome rims on

I say do it to see how it looks, if its bad then take'em off because we will clown you....

Update to response, I couldnt see the pics cause I was at work earlier. After seeing them I would vote against these inserts/stickers. Not a good look...
