Definitely doing my head in!! Just looked awful and I still don't understand why the badge was that bad lol. But it just makes it look so much better and how she should look!
Also did the rear badge as we'll but that was just me being picky as the original one the BMW was discoloured slightly so I changed that too!
Next thing to do is the front bumper/bonnet badge but I need to find a replacement first?...
I managed to do exactly this type of damage to the badges on my old Fez ST. The culprit was a strong TFR (traffic film remover) type product I used to use when cleaning a particularly dirty car. Very caustic stuff and evidently not good for delicate trim...
I've just fitted my carbon badges. I've got a bonnet/grill badge therefore that you can have? It's not perfect on the back(not sure what happened! Lol), but the face looks pretty good?
It's yours for a fiver delivered??
I'm off to the States on Tuesday (weather permitting!), but can post when I get back??
As for where I got my carbon badges, email Ian Clifton. He's well known on here (been doing these for Z4 owners for years). Really pleased with the OEM quality, but they are pricer than some of the eBay specials(worth the extra in my opinion).
