Gives something for people to talk about on this forum! 😂

Like one of the original responses to this post several years ago said it best…..99% of car owners have no idea. The 1% that notices the difference, who cares. To each their own!

Correct

The vast majority of people in other cars on the streets
will only notice that the car is a BMW.

Fake badges can be fun sometimes, when people know their stuff. But I personaly prefer totally unbadged, it is way more fun to have people asking what is this car destroying me
