Roy,

Welcome to the Forum. A quick search will find others who have done this (search link in the top right hand corner of the site). The 'e' bay link below takes you to a dealer from 'e' bay that gets good comment on this forum:

Just measure the badges you want to change and order accordingly although remember the bonner badge is a screw fitment. I have used:

These are stick on but excellent quality (and stick!) and if you don' like the effect you can remove the respective stickers (warm with a hairdryer or similar before removal as the glue is STRONG).

Real OEM site will give you details of sizes etc and if you are new to the Forum you may not have found the Real OEM site yet: http://www.realoem.com/bmw/select.do

Good luck and enjoy the Zed

How the HECK can you tell that?! lol

 

[Rudd]

just what i was thinking!

 

[Breadvan_Matt]

Lads, its sad I know but (despite all the dirt) I noticed the plate was white, had the EU symbol on the left, and has small writing (county name) at the top of the plate. All legal requirements in Ireland. :lol:

Hi Roywhlong,
Originally from Galway, but I am actually based & work in West Dublin. Let me know (via PM) if you are ever in or around Dublin, we could meet up. Wouldn’t mind hearing those Eisenmann Exhausts to be honest. :evil:

Also, those black wheels also look fantastic...
