    For your car, I think debadging is better. That blue is very conservative and I think debadging is a sportier look.

    I wish my car was still badged just cause it is a 535. My car is so blingy it doesn't need the sportier look.

    How much does the euro trim cost? My trim has a scrape and the car would look better if I replaced it. Will probably go that way.

    535i is a badge of honor. I'd keep it. It does look good either way though. Nice car.

    Even though I voted debadge, I agree. I always assume that debadged cars are 525s and figure that is what people assume about mine.

    Just don't stick an M badge on. I saw some fool with "M650" badging on a convertible the other day. Who's he trying to impress?

    I'm thinking about fabricating an M20 badge, and putting it on my M5 license plate frame instead on the trunk lid.
