BMW boot and bonnet badges

Can anyone recommend a good alternative to the dealers for badges that fit and are a good replacement for those on a E85 2003 car, mine are looking rather tired.
 
I bought a new front one in 2018 for my E86 on Amazon for £40.45 and it came from Park Lane BMW.

I didn't think that was too bad, but I've seen the blue and white sticker for about a fiver on Ebay - which might work!
 
I recently had to buy a boot badge for a 1 series and £40.93 was the BMW shop price but asking a local main dealer nicely got me roughly 10% discount. I was looking at options on eBay but I found posts across a number of forums saying that people had received used items when they were stated brand new and someone suggesting that criminals pinch them then sell them on eBay. Some would be genuine salvage, whereas others will not. That was enough to convince me to get it through a dealer.
 
Be wary that some cheaper Ebay versions may not have the subtle curve to them and sometimes don't sit nice & flat on the bonnet/boot.
