    1989 325 Convertible, no "i"

    Looking at an 89 vert with no "i" badging. Could this be correct? From what I gathered this means it has to be an "e" but didn't think there were "e's in 89 let alone verts? I though it may just be missing the "i" but it doesnt look like there is room for it and I see no evidence there was one.

      Possibly was repainted and badges not put on correctly.

      ...or a trunk deck from an eta was used if the car was rear ended.

        It could only be a 325i if it's a convertible unless the engine was swapped.

            Looks like it's just incorrect badge placement. It actually looks crooked in the pic.

              Badge was replaced. I once saw a guy who had "325" on the left side of the trunk and "is" on the right side. Needless to say, it looked fucking stupid.

                Hah, right. Painful. Thanks all. I'd just remove it. No mounting holes, its just stuck on there right?
