Emblem help please!

[OdSkE30]

So I'm trying to replace the OE emblems with white and black ones. I've tried and failed twice with the wrong sizes. Anyone successfully done this and if so what sizes did you use for front and back?

Just measure the emblems that are on your car.

Just measure the emblems that are on your car.

I did... I got about 77mm. So I tried the 75mm and 84mm ones and neither worked for the back. Front seemed to be 84mm.

82 rear
77 front
89 325I
I measured it with a measuring device

Thanks... hope it is the same for an '84.

i honestly don't remember the size, but i'm pretty sure it's 82mm... i'll measure it tomorrow for you...

hood> 82.5 mm $32.25
trunk>86 mm $29.75

the rear emblem has a curve to it, so most of those on ebay dont fit

mine is an ebay emblem :-P

[jrobie79]

do you have a link to the auction or seller? i want to get some new ones, but everyone on ebay says they only fit the e30 m3, because that trunk lid is a flat plane where the emblem goes

You know, they make this stuff in a spray can called PAINT.

wicked tedious to try to paint a carbon fiber weave into the roundel, and even then its not real carbon fiber

Wow I'm dumb. When he said emblems instead of roundels, I thought of the 318/325 badge, and then the black badge in the picture just reinforced it. I didn't even think about the sizes being listed.

Guess I should post when I'm sick and have a fever...

i was kinda being a smart ass as well, no big deal haha
