On all my cars I have always done a full Debadge, I don’t like plastic things stuck to the sheet metal. However with this car I really like the M badge. But the back of the car the way it comes from Bmw, to me has entirely too many letters and nomenclature. So I moved the X2 over, and then centered the whole shebang. Everything measured about five times to make sure everything was centered , spaced and parallel level. Tip: Use 30 pound fishing BRAID to saw off the badges, it cuts right through the adhesive, goo gone gets the rest of it, this adhesive is very easy to peel off with your fingers.
Not concerned if this changes the designation of the car from a M style to a full M, that wasn’t my intent, I really could care less about that. I just think it looks much better and you may feel differently, and that’s OK too! This is all temporary, because I’ve ordered the matte black lettering for my permanent look.
