Window stickers - about time :lol:

Roundels - I thought the black ones looked ok actually until you got the roof done, good choice :thumbsup:

I'm putting my roundels back to OEM when I've got the readies for a full set of genuine badges. I don't want to be using silicone to glue in c/f wheel caps on my shiny 224s once I've relieved srhutch of them in the spring 8)

I better give them a polish then :lol:

I am expecting to need special sticky gloves to carry them due to the amount of wax they will have had lovingly applied every time you get a spare 5mins :P
 
:thumbsup: Blue and white's definitely the way to go. I just bought a new OEM boot badge as I had some flaking on mine, but £27 ffs! New wheel centre caps cost me £40 a couple of weeks back, I need to start writing a list for santa....
 
i prefer the blue/white badge too. but then i like the total oem look on mine anyway (apart from the 2 tone wheels) i dont think the ginge/badges look bad on the merlot.

having said that im not in the mood for spending loads on new ones so a decent place for after market ones is fine with me.

This is my problem - I don't want eBay knock-offs. My c/f badges are fine as they are obviously aftermarket & the design is slightly different but high quality. If I am going back to OEM I don't want to put my old ones back on as they were a bit tatty, and I want the highest quality replacements that will last - which, according to my last quote from Sopers, will cost me £149 for the full set :cry:
 
JE nothing beats a nice clean look IMO .
We will also be able to remove our tax discs soon so all windscreen and no stickers :thumbsup:


Q, could this be the start of returning to stock before selling and buying an 3.0 ?
 
Stickers - I agree. Hate the damn things and never have nor will allow them on the car. Glad as others have said when the tax disc goes.

B&W roundels. All personal choice. I find that the blue look a bit dated and 'loud' and when sat against the red interior and brakes somewhat clash.

Here's an interesting look at BMW roundels and how much they have changed, especially on the electric 'i' cars where the 'flag' is shrinking.
