I did debadge mine.
This is the first I've debadged.
the chrome numbers on the silver paint, just don't contrast enough.
I also added the Blacklines, so the debadging made the cars rear end look soooo much cleaner !!!

I'm not trying to pose as an M3 or make others think the car is something it's not.
they'll see what it is....... but just from the back of course.....

Let the modding begin !!!!!! :-)

doesnt really matter as long as you dont scratch at the paint to much and create a dull mark

Does the US get the option of not having it (badge) fitted in the first place?

Looks great. Mine is also debadged. I had the dealer do before I picked up the car. Looked great.

Shaved with blacklines is the way to go for the sedan, looks awesome!

I don't have any straight on from behind with the new roundel, just this one:

The car is being operated on right now (hardwire radar, grille, new angel lights etc...) I'll take some more pics when I'm done.

The wheel caps look blue to me, didn't you get those too?

EHDEN · 02-06-2007, 08:32 PM

debadge...absolutely! my last 3 cars have been de-badged, don't think this one will be any different. it makes the car look so much cleaner!

Nah, I haven't bothered yet since I'm swapping the wheels in spring. If I get bored I'll do em.

DILLIGAF · 02-06-2007, 11:39 PM

I say Debadge. I ended up leaving my 330 debadged after I had to do some body work on my trunk after someone keyed it. I like the debadged look better.

FirstClass · 02-07-2007, 07:15 AM

I'm probably the minority here, but I think debadging makes the back of the car look "empty" and like something is missing. So basically don't debadge because the numbers look cool and like they belong there, without a badge it looks wrong somehow.

i know the code does show at times from other threads i've read, but it usually gets rejected for whatever reason.

then again, it's ok, since it's a very easy diy. i did mine the first week i had the car.

YES!! I mod'd my order today. It's code 320-Model Designation Deleted

Now, I'm buying mine through Pentagon Car Sales, and I don't know if that will make a difference, but that's the code.

Now I have to make sure the sneaky dealer doesn't put a dealer name sticker on the car...
