Hood and Trunk Badges
I am seeking to buy replacement hood and trunk badges with white and black carbon fiber look.
There are plenty of these on Ebay at a very good cost but I am not sure that the size 82mm and 74 mm is going to fit the G05. Does anyone know what the actual size in mm is of these badges? Are these easy to replace? Many Thanks, Ted |

The badge it self looks like it is 78 mm. The spot where it needs to be placed on the trunk and hood look like 82 mm. Maybe there is some rubber extending around the chrome making ik 82. But for 20 $ you might as well give it a try. |

Plus, once you have the correct 11 digit BMW part nbr that fits your BMW...you can shop using that number...like you can type BMW xx xx x xxx xxx into a google/internet search box, or an eBay or Amazon.com search box and find vendors that are selling the correct size Roundel. Click direct link below to the part database to see example of what was mentioned above:

Okay guys, just received the "test run" BMW roundels that I ordered from Amazon a little over a month ago.
For $16.99 w/ free shipping, I am beyond impressed with the overall quality and fitment. Compared to INDs prices, this is a SOLID alternative. Pictures are attached, installation is simple, easy and straightforward. A couple of pointers: 1. When removing the old bmw roundels, I would first tape around the area with blue painters tape to protect the paint. You will need to gently pry with a plastic edge tool under the roundel. 2. The roundel comes in 2 pieces, the backing with dual pins and the logo itself. Place the logo on the backing AFTER the backing has already been applied. You want to make sure the logo is centered with the rest of the car! 3. Before applying the backing, it would make sense to apply 3M automotive double sided tape to better ensure the backing will stick with the car. I will keep these on the car for a few months and see how they hold up over time |
