its your car and you can do whatever you like to it...

that being said, personally, if i saw one of these on the street my reaction would be that sticking on an "M" badge is similar in spirit to ricer civics with coffee can exhausts bolted onto their bumpers or people slapping AMG badges on C250/C300s.. I've never driven an M3 but even compared to an Audi A5 2.0t (my previous car), the X1 is not even in the same league when it comes to grip, center of gravity, and sporting intent of the car.

If I could afford an M3 or M5, I'd probably take off the M because only people who actually knew about cars would see the quad exhausts and know what it was and if your main concern is impressing other people, I'm sure the BMW badge is enough.
