"tHe dEaLeR hAs tHeM" isnt exactly what the OP was looking for, I'm pretty sure they are fully aware that the BMW dealer stocks BMW badges ffs
Only issue I've had with my Z4 in 6 years and 65k miles is the water pump, its probably the most reliable car I've owned and its my daily :idunno:
Not sure why you have come into someone's wanted post just to be a walloper

Totally right, ideally we all want the genuine article we just dont want to pay utterly indefensible prices for it
I will probably order those ebay ones myself as they are at least somewhat reasonable and do appear genuine
The irony is that if BMW just charged say £5 or £10 for the badges we would all probably just pay that and they would sell thousands if not hundreds of thousands of the things! :slaphead:
Instead they are greedy twats so.... :ebay:
Much appreciate those links MKZ, really good find!

Seems my very simple and humble ad about some bits of plastic caused quite the stir. I'm not one to continue it but on account of not paying dealer prices is the exact reason I posted this advert. There's a bmw dealer literally 2 mins down the road from me (not that they're any good). I appreciate people wanting to help but simply putting 'go to the dealer' isn't exactly the reason I posted this advert, nor is it the reason I join forums like this. I haven't bought a new phone in well over 8 years for their ridiculous prices either so.. Since they were brought up.. For some reason.
I appreciate the help by everyone and I also appreciate the quality you get when buying from the dealer but at the end of the day it is just a piece of plastic.
Anyways to get it back on track. I'm now doubting myself that it is 70 mm @enuff_zed. Also yes let's ignore the semantics
. Front bumper then! 
Apparently the 73mm sort of fits but god knows what model originally had that. Why can't they all just be the same!

I suspect all the 'walloping' you were getting may have distracted you, but I did post the screenshot of the Parts Cross Reference earlier.Dr. Zed said:enuff_zed said:
Ah so the E89 shares it too? Good to know, thanks! I'm sure the E86 is the same
The hunt continues..
Yes it appears they all have the same.
I can confirm my new 1-series is 82mm though.

Ah, so you did. Appreciate that! I'm surprised these are so hard to find tbh. I was expecting people on this forum to just have boxes of them lying around
E85 and E86 share the same bonnet badge which is 68mm, unique to 1st gen Z4 (51147044207)
E85 and E86 share the same side indicator badge which is 82mm (51147057794)
E86 boot badge is the same as the side indicators
E85 boot badge is different, still 82mm so probably with a different fixing (51148132375)
