Like you see BMW M badges on a bunch of vehicles that aren't?

The way the article was worded it sounds like you can't just go to the local parts room and get one - hopefully it will keep the badges off of non-Blackwings. I don't know why, but it irks me when I see an M badge on a base BMW.

Because the owners of cars with that M badge is kind of leaching onto the legacy and prestige of the badge without forking over the cash. Sort of an underserved honor.

Also, you have to go to your dealer to get one, but I am sure fraudulent badges will be made on sold to anyone with any car. People are so tacky.
