: Is it just me or do I keep seeing so many 318/320/325 etc etc that have been fitted with M tek body kits inc the rims and the badges. Why oh why do these guys do this? Im regretting it now having an M body kit fitted to my 318is since I feel I have become one of those guys who have jumped onto the fake M bandwagon, looking in hindsight I think I would have skipped the M bodykit and gone for an AC Schnitz kit instead. Anyways at least I dont have M3 badges on my boot or M3 rims on my bimmer, I suppose my car is 328sport "lookalike" since the rims are of that car:(
: What do you guys think of this sitution?

Personally, I see no problem with putting the body kit on there.
BUT, putting the ///M3 badge on there is just plain embarrassing!
I saw a 318i with an ///M3 badge on the back. The funniest part was that he didn't do anything elso to the car. It had BMW wheel COVERS, skinny ass tires, the obvious difference in the aerodynamic components, the single little exhaust pipe.... It was terrible. (NO I am NOT saying bad things about a 318! I am saying bad things about 318s with ///M3 badges on them) It was so bloody obvious that it was not an ///M, that I started to think the guy did it purposefully to piss off BMW enthusiasts. =)
