I've never been a fan of debadging, stickering, or vanity-plating... but an N54 label does sound cool and mysterious to folks that only know BMWs that start with 3/5/6/7/M/Z.

Oooo. Never thought about the N54 vanity plate. That would be cool. Still tossing around the idea of debadging.

Most of the debadged cars I've seen generally look like generic cars. Now in those cases the cars have literally no badging anywhere and I think it makes them look forgetable, not special. In this case I assume you'd be leaving the BMW badges.

^ Yes. As I understand it, debadging, in our case, means just removing the 135i or 128i badge on the trunk. They'll know it's a BMW. Just not what kind of BMW.

I am a debadger but I am leaving the 135i badge. With only the 135i on the back it is not so bad. On my Z4 the 3.0i on the side had to go and I left the Z4 on the trunk. I removed 5 badges from my Tacoma plus the TRD OFF ROAD decals and still have TOYOTA TACOMA badges on the tail gate. That was overkill. The Tacoma looks way cleaner debadged.
