Red / Carbon Trunk Hood Emblem

Is it doing too much??


I have red BBS center caps

Matches


Still I'm concerned

Have I gone too far


I must admit, that just prior they were silver and carbon
But that seemed a lot more subtle


Wish App would let me upload photos

I think you're overdoing it IMO. I like to stick with the original BMW colors. The white/black or CF ain't that bad though.

I think red badge doesn't look good as a design on its own. It just looks a little strange. May be white-red (like EMW, or eastern germany bmw ). Buy overlays may be instead and rock those for a bit, see how it feels.

Personally I think red-blue are opposite so badge vs bbs badge works well. ALso black-white badge on your car would be nice so may be I'd go with that if I wanted non-oem look. I think carbon badges always look a little ricer and tacky, no offence.

The black red looks the best I think if you have red to go with it. Looks the best also on lack cars and red cars.looks ok with silver if you have more red on the car.
