Well, the wife tonight saw both badges sitting on the folding table in our Laundry Room and asked "What the hell are you doing to the car now???" LOL!!!! Hahahaha!
So, as I explained to her my idea, she, being the traditionalist that she is, said she liked the current badge and called me an idiot for even considering changing it. I told her that against Silverstone, the M5 badge is barely legible. She didn't buy it. Hahahaha! However, I told her the stock badge was not an option and to pick one. She ended up choosing #2.
That said, I'm going with #2. This Poll is Closed!

I debadged all my cars, but this is the M. Do I really debadge the M????
If I had a M, I would debadge it for sure! seriously!!! this is just IMO and you will get more attentions and they will hear the M sound anyways!
Well, try debadge it and drive arround if you don't like it rebadge it.... that is simple....

Might as well debadge it... so people can mistaken it for a 525i/530i/545i/550i... And then I can take your badge and put it on mine.
Then say mine is an M5 and your car is a 525i.

lol but even debadged there is a M sound revving so the people will listen and notice that is a true M or V10. (impossible to compare the 525i sound even with a quad, remus, etc installed)
