Anywhere know the cheapest place to get a new M side badge #51148041424 as mine is a bit faded, and as it's in for a respray I thought it deserved a replacement. It's about £38 at the stealers and there doesn't seem to be anything on ebay, so any ideas please
 
I'd be inclined to ditch it; M doesn't mean anything anymore, and I'd rather not be associated with barried up grey base-spec 116D 'M Sport' lease cars. ;)

Plus it looks smoother without!
 
There is somewhere where you can just buy the coloured stripes, remove old ones and replace with new sticker. Maybe someone here remembers where you can buy the stickers..
 
Is it rear badge buddy??

As mines going into detailers again and I'm debadging it rears off and have sides coming off soon too
Rears mint as are sides
As putting brand new ones backbone once it's done :)

Have to say I kind of agree was looking at an "M4" the other day as it pulled out of the carpark at B&Q and thinking thats a proper smart looking car, until it pulled fully out and I saw 420D on the back.... Fucker was laden with factory M badges and M bodykit
 
Well if can wait buddy
Once home tomorrow and done at work
I'll take a pic of them for you and can decide
As if want I can take off as coming off anyways soon
If not, stay on till it goes in:)
Got front bonnet badge mint, side indicator ones, all M badges soon and various other car parts for sale in for sale area if anyone else interested :)

I'm sad,
I actually had a go a tool in the carpark the other month, M badges off eBay sale rail M5 plate and it was a crappy single pipe 5series estate parked next to me and then he gave me the
"oh you've got an M too look"
He didn't like my reply!!

I've taken the M5 badge off my E61 M5 and stuck a 520d badge on it. The other day someone walked past the car and said he liked the quad pipes I'd put onto my 520d. I struggled not to laugh and politely said thanks mate.

Haha now that's to my liking!!
The new thing is polaks pimping 7 series heaps and M badging the hell out of them
Poor poor cars!

And deffo flimper:)
Mine shall be all shiny and new once back from detailer, all front, sides, and rear badges and even one on engine replaced and wheel centres , you wouldn't think it makes a difference, but a brand new shiny badge definitely does only OEM ones as others will degrade quickly
Plus I wax mind to keep protected
 
While we're on that topic...what size are the wheel centres and the wheel-based M badges? My centres aren't perfect and I've lost one of the little wheel Ms, so a refresh is probably in order. Where do you get them from? BMW?
