Saw a black 325 with dealer plates last night, and it was naked. Pointed it out to my wife and told her I was going to do the same thing. She couldn't even tell what was missing. Then I pointed to the chrome tips, told her those were on their way. Again, a blank look.
She's embarrassed enough by having the car, that she wants to drive my truck to go clean one particular house this weekend. doesn't want to embarrass the home owner whose 5 is 2 years old |

This is a great post ... I thought I was the only one feeling wierd driving BMW at 21...( graduated college last year...first car...also paying for myself...havn't seen parents in 4 years).
I sometimes just walk to places I would normally drive to just so people dont see me in a bimmer...because when people see my car and my age,all sorts of assumptions are made (unfortunately most are bad - just like the ones dave made earlier... ) I noticed a huge cultural difference between here (US) and my hometown (Egypt)....it is acutally a big shock for me (came to US college 4 years ago)...so I am still learning alot ! Especially from this forum.. sorry to take this off topic... |

the Dave 330 guy got so riled up on me was cause im sure he didnt want someone 15-20 yrs his younger driving the same kind of high class car that he has probably wanted for years and was only now is able to afford it in his 30-40-50s. So thats how i feel when i drive around town to run simple errands.. that either #1- people think im a snotty rich bitch, #2- daddy's girl, #3-stripper.. haha...

yeah, that's a good point
I don't see why anyone gets all butt hurt about debadging, I have a 325 and I like it. For 90% of your driving the 330 is no better, I actually got the bug for a 325 when I drove my mom's E46 (I had a 95 M3 at the time, much faster than any 330) and even the old 325 is adequate for daily driving, our E90's are pretty darn quick. people buy BMW's for 2 main reasons, one is the status symbol factor, the other is that BMW makes cars so much better than everyone else (maybe not porsche). |

I debadged my E36 328iS, my E46 330Ci, and I just took the badge off my E90 325i. Always thought it looked a bit cleaner, especially on a black car.
My favorite, debadged m cars! |

Anyone with a 330 that de-badged want to sell them to me so I can put the on my 325?? JUST KIDDING. I have a 325 because I wanted it, not because I cant affort a 330, to ME it was just not worth the extra money for something I wasnt going to use. I was happy with what I got from the 325. you know what they say, opinions are like assholes....everyones got one...

Both the e91 and e61 are shown in official BMW photos sans badges. So debadge away... you have BMW's tacit approval.
I actually think it looks pretty good. I may consider the badge-delete option when it comes time for a new 325iT.
