BMW has been able to keep their basic look between model lines and over the years even with major redesigns, safety implementations, and new technologies. The 2000 740iL has the same traits as a 1980 323i, do they not? Outside of the kidney grille, there is nothing to associate the BBMW (Bangle BMW) from the rest of them. The precident has already been set. It's clear they've given him free reign to do whatever he wants. Mabe the grille is safe for now.
Stop, your making your mother cry.
I know. Bangle sucks, but hey, what can we do? I'll just wont buy as many BMW's as I would have.
