Advise. Alpina Badge

My friend had an Alpina B7. Yes, that is the most tits land yacht evah.

Ok so at some point he ordered new Alpina badges. He paid something stupid for it.

Long story short, he got rid of the B7, and offered me all the badges for a great price of a case of beer. Which he mooches off me anyway every time he comes over. lol. He is even offering to get me the matching rear badge, as the size is different. So my question, will I be super rice if I put them on. They look really nice. I like the logo a lot. The only Alpina thing I can think of on the 4.8is is the engine.

This is from Wiki, so not sure how true it is, but google searches get me to the same result.

"A sporty model badged 4.6is was released in 2002, having both exterior and interior decorations, including 20-inch wheels. The 4.6L V8 engine was developed by Alpina from the 4.4L V8. A sporty model badged 4.8is was also released a few years later replacing the 4.6 engine with a 4.8-litre (also developed by Alpina and used in Alpina Roadster V8, based on BMW E52 Z8). X5 4.8is was labelled "fastest SUV in the world".


See pic of the badge.


What do you guys think, rice, or ok? I don't want some Alpina die hard throwing shit at me or something.
