I don't think it's a sport badge, looks like it could be one from the pic but more likely it is a Kleemann badge like here http://www.kleemann.dk/files/site/Pi...7%2019%205.jpg

How about an E55 with Kleemann performance upgrades and a Lorinser body?

Hello beejAMG and yes its my car and someone else's photo in the original post. My car doesn't have AVANTGUARDE badge on it and never has.
Just had the front bumper replaced and had driving lights upgraded (LED). I'm new to this and yes I have uploaded some pictures I took in the garage to put on this forum and takes some new ones outside on the weekend.

I've got no idea veryswag what jmo means but I do know what ugly is and everyone has the their own opinions on standards and I respect that. Shes been called a lot of things in 10 years but your the first to call it that but I suppose you don't get to appreciate the whole package. Anyway its my E and I love it

Talking about this AVANTGARDE badge on the side of the fender...where did you upload the other pics mate?

i think "jmo" means "just my opinion" i guess.

IS IT A E55, KLEEMAN, LORINSER OR JUST A SPORT-588e1e84-be2f-437f-80d3-711b5871966e_zpsdch1n3lk.jpg
