    thanks if anyone has any good info.
    I'll buy them when I get paid at the end of the month. As long as the diameter is the same I'll make it stay on.

      im buying them for my hood, trunk and wheels.

      i called and talked to Jamie or Jenny dont remember the name, VERY helpful, they are all hand made she told me!

      Real OEM does not give the size of the roundel but ill measure the ones on my M3 and order the right one. finally i can get them.

        those emblems would look so much cooler on my alpine e34 rather than the schwarz e30. what do you guys think?

                Let us know. My car may not be a motorcyle but I'd pimp em...Soon to be M badged frowned upon but I dont care. These emblems are cool.

                  I have purchased all 3. These are flat, not domed like our rondel's & 1/16" thick, so bending them is out & it would crack the enameled logo - The large one is not big enough for a hood or trunk emblem. The only thing I can see is the small one could be adapted as a steering wheel center cap insert on a OEM wheel - it is 2mm to large to go in a Momo type center cap. Any other ideas?

                    I have the motorsports logo on a 2002 shift knob if anyone wants it.

                      Subscribing in hopes for some pictures soon, I think front and rear roundels would be nice, I need a new front one anyways.

                        Here's a little bit on what the ones from the MC shop will & won't fit.

                        1. I got 3 sizes from them. A small (45mm D) medium (60mm D) & large (70mm D)

                        2. The small works as a steering wheel center great. It's a glue in on the OEM E30 wheel & the OEM M-tech wheel. It WILL NOT work on a wheel (like Momo) where the center cap also works as the horn button.

                        3. The medium size works well, glued onto the wheel center insert for style 32's or M parallels & similar wheels.

                        4. The large size is a perfect fit for several styles of wheel center caps. The E30 BBS mesh 14" & 15", BBS RS's, BBS style 5 & 19. Their is very likely many more center caps that will take this size.

                        The bad news is it will not replace a hood or trunk rondel on the E30. The rondel itself is quite a bit bigger than the largest emblem.

                        Note that these particular ones are rather thick & heavy - they are like award metals. If your gluing them, be certain to use your glue generously.

                          That looks awesome! Might do that for my CSi wheels...
