How did you change just the blue segments? I think that looks great and I need to get rid of my ratty black and white front badge....

Is your boot lid matt, or is it just a trick of the light?

I thought that when I posted it! It must be a trick of the light. I've bought a new dslr camera to use instead of my phone as I plan to do a little bit of photography and so far I've been getting some pretty weird effects in my photos.

Badge still looks glossy though.

You need to type your post after the last /quote.
I used these http://shadowlinetrim.com/overlays.html. They do all of the OEM BMW body colours. I figured the blue didn't deviate too much from the OEM blue and white whilst still enhancing the look of the car.

Cheers mate.... think I'll treat myself to an early Christmas present
I just noticed you're part of the Montego Blue club. These look great in person you won't be disappointed!
Unfortunately they don't do a set tailored to the Z4 yet they do all the others so I ended up mixing and matching from two sets to compensate for the Z4's awkward and numerous sizes.
Basically you want to make sure you have a 70mm for the bonnet, 82mm for the boot and two side repeaters and whatever your wheels are which I think will be the 68/70mm again. They have a chart to tell you which sets have each of the sizes in. Steering wheels are all the same.
