          Huh? What, same engine size? Are you sure?

            They all have a 3.0L I-6. However, the '25' models have restrictions on their engines to make it slower than the '30's.

            215hp on the 325/525
            255hp on the 330/530

              Depends on which 530 you are referring to. The e34 530 is a V8

                  I could go either way with the badge. Debadged looks great, but that is a nice badge. Either or.

                    I've got you all beat...

                    Hehe...Yea, I've still have to make up my 335is badge (out of a 325is badge and a 535is badge)...

                    I wonder if a magnetic backing could be applied so you could remove it when ever you want to?

                      It would probably fall off if you closed the trunklid hard or went over a harsh bump. And if it didn't fall off, it would slide around, possibly scratching the paint underneath.

                        It will also cause rust

                            Moisture can get under the magnet and if left long enough can cause rust. I heard it on the radio a while back.

                                But Josh, with Schneider's vast automotive experience, he has seen it happen before.
