    They're all plastic. They're cheap... just go to the dealer or BMA.

        I could have sworn mine was plastic... although it has been like 2 years since I replaced it.

          I just bought some new ones off of ebay and they are plastic and cheap looking.

          I thought they were metal on my eta?

              Real ones are metal.

              The aftermarket ones most parts places sell are plastiv with a metal roundel sticker much like the wheels.

              Both are fine, but as stated the metal is nicer.

                Pretty sure my rear one is metal as it has a small dent.

                Sold it.

                  Thanks Jordan for the definite response.

                  I think I will opt for the metal ones; my e30 is too nice for plastic ones 8)

                    At first they were metal but now bmw makes them as plastic replacements. The plastic is a bmw part as well.
