Good luck finding one on here! They’re single use and can’t imagine why anyone would have a spare.

Still available direct from BMW though: part 51137174699. I paid about £35 delivered for one in March this year

It’s possible to reuse them again as plenty of people on here have done, you just need some double sided 3m tape cut to suit. Some owners prefer the cleaner look of the car without the badges, that’s how they end up with spare ones :thumbsup:

. Yes I took mine off when I was machine polishing the paint. Haven’t made up my mine on whether to put them back or not.

Difficult decision isn't it? My new zed had been debadged and I've just replaced the badges on the wings. But then mine is an E85, so having just got a 3.0si I need to let everyone who is interested see that it's a 3.0si :D
As you have an E86, then anyone who is interested will know it's a 3.0si, so maybe stick with the cleaner lines (and avoid the hassle of accurately positioning the badges).
I'm still unsure about the boot badge though. It is quite large, and I always did think it unbalanced the rear view. (And anyone who is interested will know it's a Z4 anyway...)

Actually the decision on the rear Z4 badge was easy for me, definitely looks better without it.
