Wow, you seem like one scientific dude!

Oh I see. I still cant believe how this is so hard. I found a place that sell them in Australia but I'm skeptical of the quality. When I asked whether I could return them if they rattled, they very diplomatically said along the lines "aftermarket is never going to be as good as OEM but we havent had any complaints". BMW should just make them and give us the option!

Sounds tacky but it works. Until I find a better solution i used a wide black Sharpie to black out the chrome on the front and sides. Actually looks good like black chrome. But needs to be touched up every 6 months. i am not a fan of over badging. oldschool when other tht a fe roundells the car had the series snd the engine displacement 3 - 1.8 is. and maybe a small s.

Also, you're not fooling anyone, especially the people who would know, and care. lol

You buy it for the badging? As if there isn't enough on the inside

I dont mind the front or side M badging but the rear one looks obnoxious. I couldn't wait to debadge the rear

Finally got it done! Found these guys in Australia who sell a quality item. Only took a garage 5 min to fit

Fingers crossed they deliver to your country. But either way I would recommend buying from a seller domiciled in your country.. at least (hopefully) they would have vetted their products

Damn that rear shot looks good. I'm debating on doing this right now...not sure if I want to go with a debadged rear but that looks awesome!!!

For me it’s the asymmetry the front and rear badges does to the look.. sets off my OCD to no end 😆 so the sides don’t bother me much, I just had them tinted

[ReMapEveryTHinG]

Paint protection applied. Front & rear badges off. Side badges tinted > Look complete! Happy motoring!

Yeah I don’t pay extra for the badging. I pay extra for the performance.
