Gotta love that handicap plaque; sure it is not fake with their mental state and badges.

It's Miami, so it's probably not legit.

Haven't been back there in 20 years. I believe the mental handicap though

You are correct.

Nice try, but no cigar. I do not count license plate covers.

The tri color slats are just as bad as fake badges.

No, the FOP badge says it all. Funny thing, the FOP badge is perfectly acceptable and often encouraged.

That's irrelevant as far as I'm concerned. Having a BMW plate frame on a Chevy truly makes no sense.

Fair enough. We will respectfully agree to disagree.

What is a FOP badge?

fraternal order of police.

it's a way for the police officers' unions to raise money by selling badges that people think will get them out of speeding tickets if the badges are displayed on cars.

In this case it does since the badge holder is a member.

I've always wondered if FOP badges work.

50/50 proposition unless you have a real badge to back it up; and then only most of the time.

Ahhhh...Thanks for clearing that up for me!

SaMaster18 · 03-11-2022, 08:02 PM

Not a BMW, but something (*cough* *cough* tires and exhaust) tells me this is NOT a Trackhawk. Pretty much confirmed when the car started up...

Edit: a buddy corrected me and apparently this is a "Trailhawk" and is legit - Jeep used the same badge but changed the name for this more off-roady (but base model?) Car
