    An option when buying them is to not have the badges put on. Some people choose to remove them themselves.
    Presumably in a lot of cases to avoid theft. A 335i is going to be a daarn sight more attractive to a thief than a 316.

    Nothing about a 518d gives me a semi.

    The funny thing is you actually pay them more to not put the badges on the car!!
    (Or take them back off)

    I think debadging is a no cost option from the factory.
