I will take everyone's badges if they are removing them. I will put ///M badges everywhere... My Tundra will be an ///M Tundra, my computer will be an ///M computer, and so on. Well, "M-sport" anyway.

you can debadge an F8x M4/3 all you want, its farting sound ala riced cheap aftermarket civic exhaust will give it away. You can't escape the shame of the Ultimate Farting machine.

I'll de-badge and sell them to a 335 owner. Or maybe a civic owner.


Cheers.

I will de-badge. Definitely... I think.
Just don't want to attract attention from the police...or anyone else. Having said that, SO is my number one choice.

hey babe!

It's Europe thing. We really don't want people know that we have what we have. We want to be like others, while not be like them. Also, these things cost a shit load more there, and what we don't ever want others to know, is money. I mean my richer than Christ aunt drives a car 35 or so years old. And no, not collectable, a Mazda something worse than anything you have even seen here.



Sorry for no contact. life crazy. I'll try to sort everything out some time soon.

They do it here, but I just can't get into it. I suppose people feel the same way when we lower cars, change suspensions and add spacers.

No worries! You have your real life and your C&C buddies.

It is not possibel to remove without big marks. I will buy a new set and remove it, then my painter will rebuild it so it is clean. I will be at no cost for me so for me it is a no brainer...

So if you're driving your cash earnings to another country with friendlier tax laws for deposit, you don't want to advertise it!

If you want a euro-look you remove the bullshit that breaks up the natural lines of the car
