Well guys im thinking of removing the BMW tatoo on my 545i's rear. What do you prefer and does anyone have pics of theirs debadged?
Remove the 545 and throw a 550 badge on there. LOL! Who was that guy again??? LOL!
Remove the 545 and throw a M5 badge on there. It's totally acceptable.
Remove the 545 and throw a 525 badge on there and watch 528 and 530 owners jaws drop as you beat them every time!

As for going stealth, a 6 cyl could masquerade as a V-8, or a V-8 car can go stealth and leave people guessing what's under the hood, or mimic a newer model year (550).

Follow in a few members footsteps and do either...
"555i"
But seriously, like any other mod it comes down to personal preference...you'll find the same point uttered the other 12 or so threads about this topic....GL with your decision

I opted for the black numbers for my 545i, it is stealthy and I love it!
