All being well this weekend I'm having my 04 3.0l roadster blown over, so I'm going to pop on some new badge's and was wondering where the best place to get them from is, not worried about them being original but they must look oem, I'm going to need the front and rear BMW badges, indicator BMW badges, 3.0l wing badges and the Z4 boot badge,
Any help appreciated
Steve
 
Front badge is 70mm so be aware of Ebay etc.... offering these up as anything but 70mm. Part no 51147044207

I had to go to Sopers for mine £30 incl the grommets to re-attach it.

Mine was a right tw4t to get off, used that flat nylon packing tape that they use on large parcels.

Ran it under the badge top/bottom/sides etc... and pulled like a good 'un to wrench it off!!
 
All my bm badges are shot, scratched or have the chrome or clear top layer coming off so they all need changing, and the other 3.0l and Z4 badge have never been there since I've owned the car, any idea what size the boot and indicator bm badges are ?
Cheers

I have the 3.0l and z4 badges you can have them. All I ask is a delivery address and a forum donation of your choice.
 
Found this after some googling

Bonnet roundel 
70mm (73mm WILL fit however). Held on with nuts that are accessible when removing a kidney grill and reaching up inside the bumper.

Boot roundel
82mm. "Push fit" style (not stuck). I'd advise getting two new grommets before you start incase the originals are degraded.
The grommet part number is 51141807495 and they cost £0.65 inc vat.
Removal: use a plastic card - an old credit card for example. Slide it in behind the badge and slowly lever the badge away from the car.. work round the badge easing it a bit at a time until you can get a grip of it with your hand.. then slowing pull it away from the car and it'll come off. Grommets are removable with a pair of needle pliars.. just pull them out of their holes.

Side indicator roundel
82mm. These are stuck on.
Removal: remove the indicator assembly from the car (turn counter clockwise), then carefully heat the lens and roundel (specifically around the joint) with a hair dryer or (if you're being REAL careful) a heat gun.
As it heats, the adhesive will become plyable and using a thin plastic card (old credit card again!) you can prise the roundel from the lens. Once seperated, using WD40 on a rag, you can clean the residue off the lens, making it suitable for mounting the new roundel
 
This is the Part 51147057794. I ordered all mine from BMW Derby around £120 for the full set
