I don't know if you've seen the other mods, but it already looks like tron rolling down the street.

+1 if meaning on the door like the photo. Very tacky. Coolest thing is bumping into the rare M-sport and seeing the special grill.

It's very apparent that an x5 is M sport the second he decides to change lanes and pass somebody.

On the toolbox in the garage is a better place for it.

+3. I don't even dare putting that on my ///M car (which already have a gazillion ///M badges STANDARD), let alone an elephant of an SUV (I mean SAV).

What did you do to / for your E53 today??
 
My car came badge free. I didn't even know if it was a six or an eight cylinder until I got the oil changed. I really like it I will continue that trend in my future cars. I would leave the three stripes in the grill if I had an //M.

My wife's car came standard with the badges. My car had the sport package with the air suspension in the back. After driving her car for two months while mine was on blocks waiting for me to put the alternator in, i'm very happy to be back in my car which handles a lot better. In addition to the sport suspension and an extra centimeter width on the tires and extra inch diameter of the tires, I also have five extra psi in my rear tires because they carry tools a lot.

Makes for a very scored a field especially when I don't have tools car drives just like a sports car. The amazing thing to me is how little the handling is affected when I have 1000 pounds of tools in the back. It does smooth out the bumps a little.

No label on the pads - just shrink wrapped to a cardboard sheet. From the feel I'm thinking they're not Stoptech. I'd expect them to grab earlier/harder if they were - these are pretty mild in the first 1/4 of the pedal motion.
