Dinan Badge or No Badge?
I received this from the lovely folks at Dinan. What do you think? De-badge the factory 550i emblem and replace? Use just the Dinan on the left side? Neither?
The documentation specifies it is for the E60 but it should still work.

Was never a fan of the "dinan" badge on any bmw. The badge looks cheap to me
Better off just getting the dinan "D" decal and put it on the small rear side window if you want to display it. More subtle... Alan

These badges (same goes for car dealerships and the crap that they attach to new cars) are nothing more than a FREE advertisement for Dinan (or car dealership, if you also have their badges/stickers/license plate frames). If you're ok with someone else's advertisements on your car (for which you won't get paid even a single $0.01) - then stick them on. Personally I prefer to have as "clean"-looking car as possible instead of driving something like this:

When I picked up my BMW at the dealer there was a sticker on the rear screen advertising his company. I requested him 100 euros/month for keeping it
He removed the sticker!

Dinan badge is so ugly! I saw one yesterday on an X5.

If you said documentation is for E60, that means the F10 550i didn't earned the badge. It would be embarrassing to have the badge and not supporting parts. It is like having an M5 badge on a 5 series.
