Saw this today: Turbo Badge on AW

E nine T · 12-23-2007, 02:38 PM

Was out today and saw this creation. Looks like the badge was taken off of a beetle turbo.

PIMP "E" · 12-23-2007, 04:11 PM

they should of just put a rainbow sticker there

Bimmer335i07 · 12-23-2007, 04:11 PM

I guess you saw this in NY?

He should put LOSER instead of turbo. lol!

just4kickz · 12-23-2007, 04:11 PM

turbo(s)

montreal red · 12-23-2007, 04:14 PM

ahaha why would anyone add a badge to say the car is a turbo?? i like sleepers... if people dont know a 335 is a turbo then they shouldnt know... that is until you smoke em when they try to race you.

Neema · 12-23-2007, 04:19 PM

ah haha wtf

Remonster · 12-23-2007, 04:22 PM

I've seen GTIs with the Turbo badge off of a Porsche Turbo (you'd be surprised how many different GTIs I've seen with the same badge too) but never a BMW before...

Personally I think a badge should identify the car so I prefer to leave them alone, if I ever do some serious performance mods to car I would consider debadging it but only if I was after a more custom look.

snohman · 12-23-2007, 04:49 PM

lol...
reminds me of this e90 I saw on the road a few weeks ago...
sorry the pic quality is horrible as you can't really make out the details (stupid phone cam sucks)
but this e90 was badged as a 335i AND had that same turbo badge sitting under the 335i lettering

Jay_328 · 12-23-2007, 05:01 PM

It is his car and it has a turbo .... get over it

Doesn't change the fact that it's cheesy and lame

Badges of any kind just adds clutter to the car and takes away from the lines and simplicity.

Man when will people stop...

+1...that is definitely GAY and a nice rainbow sticker would properly identify the owner as a member of the gay community. Nothing wrong with being gay...to their own, but once you start adding "cheesy" shit to your BMW, you know the stuff I have to look at, it becomes public property for public ridicule...so flame this flamer!!

That's hilarious...I hope these clowns are members of the forum and realize what a bunch of chumps they are...that looks so bad...stacking them.

Correct me if I am wrong, but that's a 328 isn't it?? Single exhaust...isn't that the giveaway?

It seems the owner doesn't feel as you do.
