HoosBMW · 02-28-2006, 07:45 PM

pathetic..every will be able to tell that it is not a 330....chrome chrome chrome

tsoc88 · 02-28-2006, 07:47 PM

You can buy the badge directly from your BMW dealer - it is about 4-5K over the 325 badge.

haha hey! i gota find somewhere else to get my post count. lol jk.

seriously though, that's lame. I don't even drive a BMW, and i know the difference between the 325 adn 330. what makes you think you can pull off a 330 badge with a 325? people will just look at your car and be like "woah, lameee."

Don't forget the chrome tips.

I did not debadge my car (though it is my constitutional right to do so) and agree that rebadging is really silly.

BTW, why stop there? Most institutions of higher learning sell bumper and window stickers. I think Harvard, MIT and Stanford make a good combination, though if you're more liberal artsy then how about Amherst/Brown/Lawrenceville Prep ? If you think about it, the sticker prices on tuition put car prices to shame.

The concept of debadging had not even occurred to me til I joined this forum. My only previous experience with debadging was when my parent's Buick had the i drop off, leaving me with a nickname for the car.

As soon as they pull alongside you, BMW drivers will notice the absence of chrome window trim (which I don't like anyway).

so my ex drove an integra and we were at this party and we had gotten into a HUGE fight. we were stnading at the trunk of his car and he was doing something. my friend ashley and i were muttering something, and she touched the "acura" badge and it fell off. i was shocked, so i bent over to pick up the thing that had jsut fallen off. as i picked it up, he turned around and was like OMGG KATHRYN U IDIOT BLHABLABALHAHH and all i could say was "but.. butt...but..." mwahha. okay the end.

...you should get a KAS exhaust on your car too...lol :rocks: :rocks:

LOL, KAS EXHAUST!!!

db17k · 02-28-2006, 08:26 PM

point #2

you rebadge your 325i to a 330i, get smoked by an IS250 he'll think he smoked a 330i and talk mad shit. heh, that's not really a point i guess.

At least it wasn't the Jaguar hoodcat. That's a pretty good story, and close enough to topic that the judges should still award a post.

And that's 100 posts for me. (And there was much rejoicing)

Hey, what happened to corporal and sargeant? (not that I'd give up my commission, mind you....)

JOYRIIDE1113 · 02-28-2006, 09:26 PM

I saw an e46 325i. It had the badges completely gone with the exception of a crooked m3 badge.

I knew it was the 325i because it had the 16inchers, black trim, and black grill. Yet he did seem to add an aftermarket ricer exhaust (5inch). It was halarious to see it, I really wanted to pull up beside him and watch me and my girlfriend laugh at him.

My gf drives an old model 325i (generation prior to the e46) and she loves it. No way is she embarrased by it. Its the perfect car.

It's not a BMW thing. It's just stupid regardless of what car you have.

make a custom 350i logo.

seriously though, it's lame to rebadge.

roppongicorolla · 02-28-2006, 10:54 PM

Why not just go all out and make it a 360iL? You can also put V12/2 on the trunk and sides. Oh and be sure to get a 'Bayerische Motor Werke' sticker for your windshield so people will know you what you drive.

ChineseGuy · 02-28-2006, 11:15 PM

Haha....we have 3 pages of comments on this silly thread.....

I hope he meant to make us laugh.......

ALthough I DO wanna see a E90 with M-powered 335ci CSL- GTR badge though

Lost Rider · 02-28-2006, 11:49 PM

352 TIX would look cool.

BMW F22 · 03-01-2006, 12:44 AM

why are u so ashame of the 325i??? It's a great car, not to mention it's expensive. I was gonna get a 325 but I wanted all the standard options on the 330. BUt seriously, if there was no way for me to get a 330, a 325 would more than suffice. Dont they get the 1/4 mile time???

He obviously wants it so it looks like he has the better of the 2 cars and that his car is more expensive than it really is.
