Hello friends. I just got my car back from the shop. It is currently sitting downstairs with new side vents- the front fender ones. I like their appearance with the new fenders and think they look great, but they currently say M5 and I want people to know my car is not an M (honestly, aside from the rear trunk spoiler and mirrors, it's hard to tell without looking in or underneath the car). Does anybody make a 550 sticker?...or is there a website that sells cool decals that fit roughly the same size allotted by the vent? What have you done to your side vents? Looking to get some ideas. Thanks in advance and have a great day.

I haven't seen anyone selling 550i emblems small enough to fit in the side vents. Why done you just remove the m5 sticker and just have the vent plain black.

That's what I did. I just removed the M5 and left it alone. It looks better that way anyway.

Ah, okay. I took them off after receiving the response from sevenup_guy, then I headed into the BMW service department and the guy made a couple comments. First comment was on how cool the Euro-Stickers were, and the second comment was, "aren't you missing a sticker here?!" and pointed to the fender grille.
