All M-Sport G30's here in Ireland have the M badge on the sides at the front. As does the 3 Series.

Note the M-Sport package has the "M" logo on the door sills, wheels, steering wheel. instrument display etc. Putting on an "M" badge on an M-Sport car is no big deal. The M5 has an "M5" badge. I'd only see an issue if someone was adding an "M5" badge to an M-Sport car. My 2c.

I have the small Ms on my fenders as well, gloss black. I like the little added touch.

+100

Put the 540 badge back on or debadge it altogether.

Throwing an M550 badge or M badge on trying to make the car something it’s not is tacky and tasteless.

Sweet !
A M550 with fog lights!
I bet that added at least 250 hp.
If you put a M5 badge up front, its even more!

The point is BMW didn’t make an m lite 540 & any right minded BMW guy is just gonna smile & shake their heads when they see that badging.

Surprised that the OP hasn’t fitted a set of ‘m’ tricolour grill slat stripes

LOL mental gymnastics to justify cringe

Yet another BMW owner is not happy with the model they could afford and put the badge on it that they wish they had bought instead

and even invented a new model line for the 5 series as well
