So with all the talk of false badging, is it frowned upon for non-CP (ZCP)cars to add the CP parts? (Black rear badges, seat belts..)
Just curious...

I would say no to the black badges. That's universal for people to want to black out badges, for all makes and models. But the other stuff like seats, wheels, seat belts, I would say that's fakin' the funk.

I image the person has probably spent enough money getting it to look like an M3 that they could've bought an M3 by now.
It looks clean though. Maybe he got something underneath that thing. I had a 335 before and never did I thought of putting M badges or anything that would look like I'm trying to fake an M3. I don't know if it was just me but I respect the exclusivity of the M cars much like when I was younger with the Evo to the regular lancers and the STI to the regular imprezas. Never tried copying and rather wait until I can afford and drive one.

I agree, it look clean. Personally, I would never do this to a 3-series because I'm like you, if it's not the real deal I'm not going to spend any money trying to make it look like an M3. I waited patiently until I could afford my M3. I really think people do this to make others think they are driving something they aren't. Fake it until you make it!

The worst part of all of these faking the funk is that they get off on taking people for suckers to make them think that they're driving ///M cars.

Found this gem a few months back:


An otherwise decent 428i with the M Performance trim ruined. Is he on this board?
