Real vs Fake

TheEnrique · 07-15-2019, 02:49 AM

I wanted to show everyone the difference between real and fake (ebay/amazon) M sport badges. Top is real.

Does anyone else have some comparisons?

Other than size, the fake ones look nicer. Lol

I bought a bunch of eBay ones a few years back. They looked identical.

I didn't like how 90% of eBay ones tend to have the logo overlap I to the curved part of the sticker. Tends to distort the logo a tad and definitely looks less cohesive.

There are ebay ones that are the correct size. They work good enough.

Fakes ones look like crap. From the sizing, to the canvas-like texture of the text they look bad. Even the M coloring looks off from this pic.

Do you have the link to the fake ebay one? Just so everyone can see.
