BMW has M badges all over the 230i with the M sport line. I see nothing wrong with adding one more badge. |

Where did you source the M? It looks too tall relative to other badging.

In regards to the badge, I got it on eBay. It was one of the few gloss black badges I could find. You are correct. It is a tad taller than the oem digits. I decided to center it with a small overlap top and bottom to try to balance it.

Not trying to hate, but I’m not a fan. Non-enthusiasts won’t notice and enthusiasts will think it is a poser move. But at the end of the day it’s your car and it doesn’t really matter what I think.

I think you're infinitely better off debadging entirely and getting a black spoiler. GF has a red 3-series with the OEM CF spoiler, debadged, and it looks great. Black grilles and mirrors.

Not in the slightest...your car, your choice. It just looks off to me, as if a mis-build. A good MPerformance 2 Series spoiler, rear diffuser, etc. in black could satisfy your black craving. My eyes just think this was a step backward.

The proportions look off. The black is very nice indeed! I'd redo this with all the same size. I'm sure IND will be of great help! Make it look same size, looks much better!

Installed an MPE and MP Diffuser today on my 2017 230i.
MPE is from a 2016 M235i and look a bit of modification to fit properly, but it was a super fun job! Resonator still in place; love the sound. The diffuser really does so much for the rear of the 2 series!
