M Logo on the headrests
I had a thought today as I looked at the M badge on the headrests. Is it possible to "liven it up" with some color as the exterior badges are? If tastefully done, I thought it would be a nice cheap upgrade?
Thoughts? |

+1 I think if it were stitched in, it would look pretty sweet and it will go nicely with the stitching around the steering wheel. Just make sure it's done well, otherwise it will look cheesy!

The same thought crossed my mind and i will be doing it soon.
I first thought of adding leather color to fill out the /// but now i'm thinking a nice stitching job would be nicer. |

i think if the same adoption of the tri-color stitching that is used on the steering wheel ...is used on the M badges on the headrests...it would look good. However, as many forum members aforementioned, it must be done professionally, and probably will only work with certain colors....just my 2 cents.

I like the fact they're subtle because there are already too many goddamned ///M logos on the car as it is. I would prefer the only ///M logo on the car be the ones on the side gills.
