So to recap. All things poser are as follows:

///M5 Badge on non-M5
Stick on M5 side grills
Stick on sunroof
Stick on Brake Calipers
Stick on Blow Off Valves
Fiberglass Intercoolers

Anything else we should stay away from?

Can't even begin to try to find a worse mod! This is by far the worst thing Ricky could do to his brakes!

sh!t, I hope not!

For real though, that mod is seriously bootleg - I can't believe people actually add these things to their cars knowingly

Correct

Don't own a M5, rather a 545 posing as one
Don't own a Z06, rather a C6 posing as one

Still mad at me huh? Rick, the ironic thing is, I don't know Mr. B personally - never even met at any of our meets.
But hey, how about we put that thing behind us? We cool?

Reminds me of a story where a 1.6 golf owner put a huge broken truck turbo under the hood, just to showoff when its open, and 3,5" exhaust tip also:-P

I dont understand why people do things like that, i prefer debadged and only reasonably modded cars (mods that somehow affect handling, performance, aerodynamics and looks, but i hate bling, stickers, wings etc.).
