This “M5” definitely annoyed me the most, just because you do a muffler delete on your 528i does not make it an M5 homeboy.

A5 S-Line driver that plastidipped roof looks atrocious, get ya money up and get a real roof wrap.

These are two separate images, but they flow together perfectly. I never thought I’d say this, but... thanks, kinja!

Bumper protector. You’re supposed to flip them into the trunk when you’re done parking though.

I always think about living in New York City, but then I remember that I like my cars absolutely spotless down to the last inch.

Roof wraps are legit! Wrapped back half of the roof and mirror caps. Awesome.

You mean this isn’t a Mercedes with 7.8L motor?

I don’t know if people in the city are aware of this, but your aren’t supposed to hit cars when you are parking. Just a heads up!

This one is perma-attached to the plate and can't fold into the trunk.

Party-vi > Rico 07/20/2015 at 15:14

Huh. There’s no provision for folding it under into the trunk? That’s just silly.

You need stuff like that because people in NYC use their cars as bumper cars and park like this, literally fused to your cars rear bumper.

People in this city treat their cars and other peoples cars like shit. And if you do something about it like slap the shit out of somebody, you are a criminal.

Yeah I don't blame you one bit.

Bumper protector, see my other response as to why it's necessary.

Note to self. Never move to NYC.

I know people have brought this up before, but here: The people who would be impressed by an M5 badge are exactly the people who would know that ISN’T an M5. Just saying.

What you will find on 1 out of 3 cars in the city.

Exactly! Thank you! When I see this shit I just wonder who are they trying to fool? You are just fooling yourself.

Nah only the flexible rubber ones can go back in, this one is screwed to the plate and locked on.

Y LINDSAY NO HAVE GTI SE WITH DDC AND LIGHTS!?

I have them with lights! DCC is crazy hard to find right now, haha

It’s between one with DDC and lights or a MkVI Autobahn. I prefer the looks of the MkVI better for some reason.

Don’t do a mk6! The mk7 drives so much better - I’ve had both, hahaha. Come get a mk7 from me, I’ll find you one with dcc and lights.

These are the bad phonies

I spotted a 328i with M3 badges. Fail.

Oh, the owner kept the 328i badge on too.

I HATE seeing things badged to make them look more expensive. The only person who would notice would be a car enthusiast and any car enthusiast will obviously see you’re being a poser.
