No BMW M2 OEM ones available and only OEM ones i know of are for M3/M4 which come with comp package, reason why the emblems are cheap to buy from iND.

But for M2, iND is the way to go, great quality

Why couldn't you buy the OEM M235i one and just use the M2 part of it? Has anyone tried this?

There was a comparo between the M2 and the M3/M4 emblems showing the size difference.

Is the 235 emblem black? Isn't it 235M or is it M235?

I thought they came in gloss black OEM but maybe not. http://www.shopbmwusa.com/PRODUCT/48...ENT---2-SERIES

You can get it at IND for $85. Not sure if the size is different than the M2 badge.

Yeah, I would be fine with paying for the badge but the shipping cost is ridiculous.

Cheapest alternative - Plastidip the badge and when you get bored just rip off.

Looks like it is just me and you, do you want to order 2 and we can split the cost?

I bought mine from mod bargains. I went to buy it from IND but shipping was like $15-20 to ship it 500 miles. So I searched it out from another online dealer and found the same IND painted badge with cheaper shipping.
