Nice! Your F10 looks great and tastefully modded. The road trip to Monterey is quite nice too.

Just my opinion though, but I'm not a fan of the "M" badge. You might catch some grief for that one...but everything else looks awesome!

I think its justifiable to place an M badge.. It is a M package and im not claiming it as an M5... Hehehe thanks for the concern tho..

Nice looking car, but the badge is making the driver look foolish.

Looks nice. Though, you should at least paint the four license plate plugs, in the front bumper, the same color as the car? No comment on the //M badge (i.e. would get rid of it)

Some nice touches on there, agree on the bumper plugs and the "M" badge though. Not sure about the rear lip spoiler, but its definitely different and adds some contrast to the black/silver theme. Would be nice to see this car in person.

ThAts exactly what im aiming for.. Subtle and a clean flow of silver/blk theme.. I threw the spoiler just to break the back and make her azz a little bolder.. I guess the "M" is controversial here... ( i dont really know why... It is an M package..) thanks for the compliment..

Why pretend with that badge? C'mon now. Everyone can see from a mile away there is nothing M about your car apart from the bumper kit.

Perception is the problem here i think but i know people in the BMW community and general public has more intellectual to distinguish between M5 badge and ///M badge... My intention it not to pretend but to continue the same badge i see all over the car...

Heyyy.... What can i say.. Some beauty has flaws as well...

It's a good point. Perhaps an M badge in the front and some on the side would be good as well?

Ridiculous, badges are ugly. And you made the car more ugly, just to have it say something it isn't..

There is a reason why your car didn't come with the M badge on the trunk.
