What bothers me even more than all the fake badges in this thread is how all of the fake badges are crooked. If you care enough to install a fake at least make it straight, my OCD is going wild lol

A very nice fellow gym rat that I always say hello to has fake M badges all over his car. I've never brought it up in conversations.

Didn't get a chance to take a picture but I seen a rare F30 M330 yesterday. When he saw my G82 he immediately pulled in the turn lane.

The french flag is bleu, blanc, rouge.

This is more like the russian or serbian flag.

The dutch flag is red(orange)/white/blue, i.e. the french flag reversed. In that photo, white and red are on the outside, which is more in-line with the east-european flags.

I presumed this was fake and got excited about posting it here!
Then looked it up, and determined that although fake, it's factory-fake!!!

Suds · 06-04-2022, 05:38 PM

That is tasteful and looks reasonably square.

That is 100% not factory. Not in the US.

HA, that's funny... I did a google and it looked like there was a M Sport/Tech package. Didn't check close enough to see where though! And I swear I saw some images of similar badging, but for the life of me can't find it now.

Fool me once...

M Sport packages only ever have (exterior) M logos on the fenders (in non-US markets), not in the back.
