The MINI logo is more impressive and interesting than the Beemer. JMO.

even with your logics: so badge a vw with a porsche and what do you get? thats right! a posermobile

not missing any proposed point here, I just take things literally,
And Poser mobile.......Give the guy (OP) a break, if he wants a BMW sign on his ride more power to him, its a neat touch you dont see everyday.
Too the OP, I think the entire rear of the car is too MUCH, the rest looks good.

I'm not brave enough to take a chance with stripes like that. That being said, you did & they look very good.

Congrats on being a chance taker.

Nice job!

Interesting stripes, but since they are mirror images of each other, it might have been nice if they were put on to be even. One side is higher than the other, if you line up the graphics, etc.

Something like that would drive me crazy.
