My Ride: 545 modded the F out
Default

Just wanted to get some feedback on the Mfest emblems. I was hoping to rock these at the meet this weekend but they came in Saturday night. After I slapped them onto my car I kinda felt that the rear looked too plain so I plasti dipped my old badge and put it back on. Im still up on the air whether or not my old setup looked better, but I still like how it looks. I kinda like having the badge back on as well. I also threw on the Mfest sticker just cuz I thought it looked cool. Does it look tacky? Probably wont stay on their too long, but being that Mfest is less than a week away I said why not. Still trying to debate whether or not I'll be making the drive to vegas.

Let me know what looks better


I also took my roof spoiler off but I bought another one in CF. Should I put it back on or leave it off?

Old CF emblems (debadged)

I like the CF. More contrast and cleaner look. The "murdered out " look just looks like a Black dot IMO. Otherwise, looks great!

No on the murdered out badge. It's just a black circle.

But since you just got it and Mfest is coming. I'd rock it for a while.

X1 - but looks good though. I just prefer the contrast of the CF.

the "black dot" was my thoughts exactly. They're cool to admire up close, but I'm not sure how long I'll keep them on. So take the badges back off as well? What about the roof spoiler? Thanks for the feed back all

I do not like the dot. When BMW was testing out the new 5, they used something similar except there was no bmw on it. It kind of looks the same from a couple of feet. The CF is definitely better!

Well you already know what I think of the black dot, lol.

As for the model badge in the back, I am more about nothingness for the clean look, but the black contrast is good and fitting against your paint job.

Damn you SIMON! I seriously only looked into these cuz you recommended them LOL.

I gotta stick with them for a little while or else Im out a good penny.

I still like them tho. The rear looks ok cuz theres a ton of stuff it can blend in with. I may even change my plate frame to a black one. The front however looks very lonesome.
