Yes, I've seen factory ///M on the fenders of M Sport/ M Performance cars in Joe Achilles UK videos. BMW is putting ///M on almost everything these days. I recently saw a 2024 M850i at the dealer with M mirrors, a carbon fiber roof and ///Ms all over (front grille, wheels, steering wheel, etc). If you weren't a Bimmerphile, you'd think it was an M8. Mercedes AMG & Audi RS are doing it too. Marketing dilution. It sells cars I guess.
