edit: I guess I should've titled the subject badge, rather than flag. I was thinking about the German Flag colors.  Seen the LTW flag on the hood, German Flag on the mirrors, M colors on lips. I've only seen a handful do a German Motorsport type flag on the grill. A friend of mine has it on his E30. Wanted to see how it rubs the ti community before I epoxy permanently. The two little squares of adhesive just ain't gonna cut it. Feel free to flame I don't mind, just don't bash each other  Other up coming plans for the exterior: -Apexcone HIDs -Apexcone Projectors -35% Tint all around (except windshield) -Stubby Antenna -Front License Plate Delete (I'll take the ticket, I don't care!) -Possibly another German MS Flag on the rear, left side hatch? -CF Roundels or Black Vinyl to cover up the Blue. -New .org Decals, damn snow and ice are destroying them   __________________

Nice, clean, and simple. I like it. Looks good with the blacked-out grills. | | | | | 01-05-2008, 11:21 PM | #3 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2006 Location: Southern California Posts: 208 |
I was actually thinking about doing this a while back, but I want to add the "ti" next to the flag.
It looks great!!! | | | | | 01-05-2008, 11:24 PM | #4 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2007 Location: Odenton, MD Posts: 419 |
I think a small, italicized, black vinyl "ti" would look good on the yellow portion of the flag. | | | | | 01-06-2008, 05:22 PM | #5 | | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Eugene Oregon Posts: 6,182 |

I like it, but I think that it resembles the Audi "S" badge from a distance. I think it just might be me. BUt it looks good on the blacked out kidneys. | | | | | 01-06-2008, 09:48 PM | #11 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2007 Location: LA, Bellflower, CA Posts: 3,613 |

yeah ... good thinking. where does one get these? i could put a swiss one on mine. people would probably think i was part of the red cross though (even though the colors are the exact opposite, white cross on red background). __________________ 1996 318ti, California package, 267k miles

They could very well make other countries, I picked this one up off of eBay from a guy who's located in Boston. Not that I represent the German in me often (1/4 German, 1/4 English, 1/2 Korean) but I figured it tied in well with the German car as well, that and the front of the car will need some contrast when I do the plate delete. Thanks for all the comments guys! I'm going to pop it off and stick it on the back, see how it looks. Then clean it up and epoxy it to the front grill. I'll keep you guys up to date with the process. This is the folks I got it from, it says to e-mail them if you want something that they dont have up. http://www.detailhaus.com/BadgesEmblemsMain.html (They also have an eBay account, detailhaus) __________________
