Because i can't find any 70 mm badge in eBay, is there any alternative (like 74 mm with minimal mod and with quality finish) for bonnet emblem without spend more +30 gbp in the original OEM? Thanks

I had a flat 70mm badge from moto-dojo on ebay. He doesn’t have any on sale at present but you could drop him a mail and ask? Excellent quality, he makes them for the BMW air head bikes.

I struggled as well, and ended up buying a complete roundel from BMW Park Lane via Amazon for £40.45 last October.

Then I found a link to here:- https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-Genuine- ... 4091472679 - typical! :roll:

It says they are for wheel centres, but if they are 70mm it may be worth a try at that price.
Coupes because stunning!

Hey guys,

Im a Newb, but needed a 70mm badge for the front too, as it had a cheap dull carbon one (carbon looks good) but not oem quality and looking tired, So like you went on eBay, and just like you found there not cheap, But I found what I hope will work, havent got it in my hands yet but here's a link take a look, it will need double sided tape I expect, but if it looks as good in the hand as it does in the picture then maybe it will be useful to some of you, ill post a pick when it arrives.
