Bonnet badge is 70mm diameter, not the 82mm size fitted elsewhere on the Z4.

Harder to find (and more expensive) than the standard 82mm size. I need to get one myself for my car...

Are you after genuine ones? I got a full set of reps from eBay for a tenner and that changed every badge on my car. Sold it recently but after a year they still looked good as new

My bonnet badge is now just a button with no emblem left! How are they held on? Are they easy to remove?

TIA

There are two pins held in by 10mm grommets. you'll need to get under the bumper though to reach them. This may help

I removed the front roundel from my F10 M5 using a vacuum sucker that just allowed me to pull it off. Simple really. These must be different, I presume. :?

Done mine last week. Took kidney grill off and there's 2 x 10mm nuts at the back that hold it on.
