Yes or no, Putting a ///M Badge

Is it ok to put this M badge in a 335i M Sport? Just want to ask what you guys think.

If you have the M-sport kit on your car, it would be ok to put an ///M badge on it. But, I still think that particular one is hideous.

I just got it from the mail it does not look bad. I have the ///M badges in my steering wheel, door sills anyway so i purchase one. I have not put it on yet, just want some advice first.

I don't see the point. I think the badge would look out of place.

Your sig says that your car is debadged. Keep it that way. It looks 100x cleaner.

Please don't do it. You don't drive an M3, and the "M" icon has already been devalued enough in recent years.

It used to piss me off owning a Corvette Z06 when I saw stock Corvettes with Z06 badges slapped on after a set of wheels

No. Do you drive an M car? Then why would you badge it as one?

Do it. It's your car and you can do with it whatever you want. All you should be asking is for opinions, not permission.

BMW puts the //M badges on cars with the M-Sport package in Europe so it's fairly common there. I think you'll wind up getting more shit than it's worth here in the US. The markings on your steering wheel and door sills are understated enough that they don't look out of place, I just think a lot of people will give you a hard time for an exterior //M badge.

BMW created the M for a reason. The reason our cars have M dynamics is to make a beautiful car look even better, I love my 335i with the M-sport package but nothing can compare to a true M. I would never degrade the M car by falsifying my car by putting the badge on the rear.
