The Dinan badge requires a minimum of 10 points. Since you're only at 7 points, I wouldn't throw a Dinan badge on there just yet.

Replace the 545 with Matte Black 550 lettering. Nobody would ever know and it's pretty close. Hahahahaha!

(I wonder if any 545 members have rebadged their cars to say 550???)

DINAN 5

Too many letters IMO on the back of your car.

Looks like I'm going to be sporting it flat black.

Thanks for the input,
I"ll post some pics when I get it painted and put on (right side this time )

I don't think it will look bad, or too big if it's flat black.
And I do see other 5'ers around here that are debadged.
And I'm guessing that no one will know if it's a 550 or 545 if it's tagged up with the Dinan 5 Badge.

And if I put it on, and it's not doing it for me, it's only some floss away from getting debadged again

I think one of RPi's test cars for the 545i axle back exhaust was rebadged with 550i.
