I think you should replace the badges, especially for the 4.6is model. You should be proud that you have a 4.6is...plus most people have seen the 4.4 and 3.0...when they see the 4.6 badge...they ask questions....its kind of like bragging rights.

Without badges it gives the fenders a less cluttered look and looks clean. I would just put the rear X5 badge as suggested by others. Good luck none the less and enjoy the X5

I took my 3.0i badging off.........Heat it with a hair dryer for 6-8 minutes & get it pretty hot and take some dental floss & run behind it. It should come of pretty easy - then just clean it up a little bit after that to get the extra glue off.

Kevin told me how to do this one...........Thanks again Kev!!!
