As title says. Been looking and failing to find one.

First was too big,
The other one wasn't curved to the car so looked silly.

Someone point me in the right direction

Cheers

Chris - you need to carefully dremmel a curve into either underside edge of the non-OEM carbon badges. Skillick had already done it to the ones I bought from him, so he may be able to help. Otherwise there's pics of what you have to do on here somewhere. If I get a chance I'll have a dig for you... Unless one of the mods gets there first :D
 
Agree with above. A lot of trial and error in shaving off bits at a time with a Dremel to get it to fit. Why doesnt it fit? Is the Z4 roundel different to the rest of the BMW range???

73mm badge and a few minutes work with a dremel and job done. Fixed on with a couple of dabs of silicone and that's it.
 
Bizarre - just looked at the one I took off and it's not curved or shaped at all. Could be my eyes, but looks a bit thinner than the carbon one, so perhaps that's why it sits better.
 
I got a 73mm one, and dremeled the bit in black below:
