I don't think so. I presume it's a special pressed metal piece or something? Mine is doing the same but I just live with it.

My rear badge is fading too though, so I'm keen to go the decal route when I see how it turns out for you guys!

I was talking about the engine badge there - it's a metal foil applied to the engine cover. M badges are stupidly expensive, so just replacing the coloured sticker is a great solution for them!

After no luck contacting Steve, I've sourced a guy in the US selling the stickers. Found them via a M3 forum in the US, actual photos before/after with the new stickers look good.

A long way to send some stickers but at US$17 inc shipping I'm happy.

On that page the stickers look like they have a bit of an "orange peel" texture. Is this not visible when applied?

The photos in the link won't show for me :(
If you could post pics when you get them though that would be awesome :thumbsup:
