Matte Black //M Badges and CF or Black Roundels?

Cortes2141 · 12-09-2015, 02:37 PM

Ok, so I have searched many threads and found nothing newer than 3 years old, some were 6yo! I am looking for matte black //M badges with the black/grey/white stripes (or just solid matte black if that's an option) and I am also trying to find some blacked out or CF roundels. Again, everything I have found was a 3-6 yo dead link to ebay. Surely by now someone legit makes these for the z4m?? In my search I found a few different claims to sizes. I think the most common was claiming we use a 70mm front and 82mm sides, and I don't even remember what the rear was supposed to be, are these correct?

Check out aliexpress all shapes and sizes and colors
But don't know what sizes you need

I was finally able to find a site that sells the matte black badges here if anyone is interested in them. I also ordered their roundel coverup kit. I really did not want to do the vinyl stickers, but I heard all those chineese knockoff carbon fiber roundels were breaking/fading. I will let y'all know how the these coverups work out!

FWIW, these were listed under my "mods you regret" thread. I personally would stick with OEM.

Yah, I read through that. Thanks. I really don't want to do vinyl overlays, but at the same time the chrome/blue/white badges just take away from the clean black look.

So I got the emblems in and was kind of disappointed. The 2 different sizes are 2 totally different emblems/colors. The smaller ones were painted and had beige rather than grey. and the matte black was a bit darker. The larger one was stickers. I am thinking about just just removing the side ones all together and only putting the black one on the trunk...haven't decided whether or not to attempt the carbon fiber vinyls...

Wow, that's really a bummer. No way those colors should be so off between badge sizing. I like the painted ones, but as you said, the beige color is totally wrong. I'd return those if possible.
