That's pretty funny!

Now all you need is more ///M badges for the outside!

I used the same technique the last time my computer needed an upgrade, as the sticker was much cheaper than extra RAM. It's simply amazing what an ///M badge can do for you - she's a screamer now!

I have a AMG M335 V8. I think putting untrue badges on your car is lame. It's cheating. If you can't afford a AMG M335 V8 like me (with Dinan upgrade), then you shouldn't pretend to have one!

You POSER!

Actually an M-badged steering/interior accessories doesn't have to imply M3-posing...BMW offers M-Sport accessories across the board. I think the OP is trying...I have to say if you're going in that direction you might want to consider swapping out to the sport wheel at the minimum and the positioning of the //M badge is wrong, it should be lower, just off the wheel...look up pics

LOL. this thread is too funny.

I would say this might void your warranty. Airbag might not deploy correctly, or added momentum from the sticker might cause your steering wheel to malfunction because of extra heavy load.

Does it affect your Active Steering?


Is that an OEM upgrade or Replica?
