Finally a worthy black M emblem

G80indy · 10-22-2016, 10:19 AM

Found the e9x OEM size, and with enamel stripes. A little polish and it is nice...
Badge is metal too! Impressed with the quality and execution ...
Gotta love our friends in Asia with creative means to do this kind of accessory.
No more faded stickers.

Will swap it out on the ride some time down the road...

By the way, the source sold out quickly. eBay
Will post if it comes back up.

$1 shipped.
:-D

Asia, $1 shipped and Ebay all used in the same post. What could possibly go wrong?

G80indy · 10-22-2016, 11:53 AM

Yeah
$1. is a lot of risk

blk zcp · 10-22-2016, 12:30 PM

Where's the 3? Is that $3 extra?

shimmy23 · 10-22-2016, 01:00 PM

So..why not just use the ///M from the iND badge that's already on the car?

Not trying to be a dick, but my comment was going to be that you should spend the extra $49 and get the iND one which is OEM and much nicer, but opted not to because there is no argument on why you should spend $50 when this fine piece of Asian engineering is only $1.00. But you already have the iND emblem. So you lost me.

G80indy · 10-22-2016, 01:48 PM

Because the stickers are cheesy.

Rat3d ///M · 10-22-2016, 02:26 PM

They're OEM. I never took OEM as cheesy. But somehow spending $1 shipped for an emblem from China for a German car isn't cheesy? Whatevs man..you do you I guess.

G80indy · 10-22-2016, 03:45 PM

If you had actually read what I wrote- this emblem is OEM dimensions and an exact replica. iND does an OK job but they basically spray paint OEM plastic/chrome emblems and then sells for upcharge with stickers that are weak, IMO.
No offense iND. After all I bought one.
The stripes here are superior to even the factory sticker, that is not durable and fades.
No prob that you don't 'get it'.
But thanks for your contribution to the thread

Exact

Bucki14 · 10-25-2016, 12:15 PM

please do for a buck wtf not now to find a 3...ill paint it myself

Flying Ace · 10-25-2016, 12:57 PM

it's a $1 guys...you probably waste $1 of your employer's time reading this thread at work.

If it works, then great. BTW, I used a glossy black vinyl wrap on my OEM emblems. Looks great as well, and cost fractions of a penny...lol

Installsplus · 10-25-2016, 07:50 PM

Can u post the eBay add. This would be great for my tool box
