How could you do this and drive around?





Does anybody rebadge their Acura to BMW?

The bimmer badges instantly convert their FWD POS's into the ultimate RWD machines.

I just realized the guy in the Altima rebadged it as a 525 and put the I on the rear quarter panel instead of on the trunk. :lmao:

I didn't know BMW made an Altima 525i

Here is one I saw and took a picture of. They couldn't even put a Benz or Bimmer badge on it

Does this mean I should take the Ferrari badges off my S2000?

And some of them are trying to be baller, others may have a sense of humor.

sometimes people purposely do that so if their speeding and get pulled over..the cop has a better chance of writting the wrong information down on the ticket if he isnt familiar with cars..and you can fight it? thats only thing i can think of why people would actually change the badges on there cars lol..other then that idk

Really? That seems like a stretch. Especially when they look at the registration and it tells them what kind of car you are driving.

when people re-badge something so obvious, I see it as sense of humor... it's when people try to pass their none-AMG or M's as if they were... thinking people won't be able to tell... that's when it gets on my nerves... (like my uncle )

I totally disagree, putting JDM honda bagdes on an Acura is nothing like putting BMW of a nissan altima.

Acura has a relationship to Honda atleast
