Well, I must say, I appreciate you fessing up to your trickery.

The funny thing is that the overwhelming majority of drivers, even BMW drivers, have no clue what the Dinan badge means. And those who do know will be able to spot the fake one miles away and you automatically lose any "cool factor" you were attempting to pass off.

I thought I won the "whose the biggest Dinan badge whore" thread a few weeks ago with my combined 26 points...perhaps we should have a re-vote!

I typically won't call BS on other Dinan guys...we have to withstand all the OCDBD on the board as a group, but I just couldn't let it slide and I had to know. Thanks for the forthcoming answer.

I would love to (and I actually miscounted, its 27 points, ha!)...you can have some from the E46.

The E92 needs all it can get..its only holding off my buddy attorneyscott by one point...the + 25 HP aluminum pedals are giving me a one point win! Even though he has Stg. III suspension to my Stg. I suspension...both worth 5 points!!!
