I did see those and they were my second choice. I still wasn’t feeling the added color. I wanted something more subtle so went with the black/white carbon ones. I think I have another week or so before they arrive.

Agree, they look good on Donnington Silver. Mine are going on Brooklyn Grey!

They just arrived today…out of curiosity how do the front/rear roundels attach? I’ve seen removal with fishing line assuming due to adhesive but these didn’t come with any adhesive so what are you guys using to install?

Idk bro!

I've got a BSM X3Mc - just considering these and how they'd look on black.

I think on BG or silver, they will pop for sure. Not sure on BSM.

Yeah maybe not enough contrast with bsm…some of these other places that folks have listed here that do custom ones could work.

Bought them from IND Distribution. I'm local to them and it was a special order, but they might make you a set too.
Those look awesome. Might have to see if they can make me a set.

Look good! You happy w/ how they look??? Also - once mounted. Post some pics..

Yeah, I know about BSM and dark roundels... Also - we ALL have the bug to keep doing more. I want my BSM to look bad, but understated some. So far:

ER midpipe/BSM filters
Ceramic coated
295 meats in the back w/ 12mm spacers
Eibach springs
RC/gts black on order (lol**)

I mean - I think I'll force myself to take a break. Super happy w/ what I've done so far.

Yes they look great…I’ve heard some issues with how they hold up long term but my car is garaged so time will tell there.

You’ve got a good mod list going there! I’ve stayed all visual with this car as I want to retain the warranty…I have CPO and still have much of the warranty intact.

Would love to do the kws at some point!

And I’m nervous about installing these as easy as they should be. Probably over researching but I’ve seen how the pin hole grommets need to be replaced or I need to use adhesive etc. not sure what I need for install but I guess if I remove them and need something then I’ll just have to be roundeless for a short time! 😂

And done! No more blue, definitely happy with the look.

I did not replace the grommets…but I did apply 3m tape to both the front and back roundels.

Was pretty tuff for me to remove lol. I used lots of goo gone and a poly cord strap to pull the emblems out. Mine also had tape under. But it looks great.

I previously bought a set of trim removal tools from Amazon. I’ve used them now for a few jobs now and made prying up the roundels a breeze. For me the front one took quite a bit more force and funny thing was that was the one without tape. So much so that I popped the hood to make sure it wasn’t bolted on 🤣

The steering wheel one was the easiest because it’s just sticks on over the existing. Now just crossing my fingers they all hold up well!
