i hope not!! thats lame what about the fact it has two exhaust pipes not four?

i was just making a joke... there have been worse "upgrades" like the guy who "upgraded" his honda to a 745 :)

i still wonder why you would take them off? i hope to replace with new ones

Good call.This is the best way to do it!
To clean the adhesive off ,use a degreaser.

maybe he's going for the clean look :dunno:

rip em off
 

just rip em off and then use a little adhesive remover. They are attached with a 3m spongy like material.. just be careful not to bend the metal part back against the paint

It is a cleaner look, IMO. As a side bonus, it makes it easier to wash and wax.

They may change the exhaust with the 4.4 or 4.8 exhaust for a little more than pocket change. :rofl: Then someday, somebody like me will race them and their X5 will be all huffed and puffed. :jk:

would you be taking them off if they said 4.4i?

uh-huh...

Actually I would. I'm not fond of those side emblems at all, whether they were 4.8is or whatever I'd take them off. Interestingly, in Europe you can order your M3, M5, etc with badge deleted for no charge. They're not big on advertising.
