They look good I don’t have an M but I am mad about cleaning my car, I would be careful about going too far with the Dremel as you don’t want to go through the chrome into the metal below, wouldn’t want you to wish you had stopped.

Keep at it mate. They’ll come out sweet. Though looks like your are a little scarred on the inside. Btw. Mine are originals
