BMW replacement emblem

bjstoner · 12-14-2017, 10:24 PM

Hoping to get some help or some ideas. My M2 is in the LBB with a full Xpel stealth wrap, reflector deletes (front and back), black front and side grills, De-badged, CF mirrors, and CF MPE. What I am trying to do is find a replacement for the front and back BMW emblem so that I have no chrome anywhere on my car. I know you can get those decals that you can place on top of the emblems but I am looking for something more permanent and nicer. Currently mine are auto dipped which turned out better than expected but over one summer they are showing signs of pitting. I have attached a couple pictures of what my emblems currently look like. Has anyone found a suitable replacement for the stock emblems? Thanks in advance for the help.

IND has painted emblems with the chrome around the edge of the emblem painted in gloss black, matte black, or black chrome. $115 each for front and rear.

Thanks HungryM. I emailed them since if they paint these in house they might be able to do a custom one for me for a bit more.

Luftkraft Fab outside of Denver will do a custom roundel painted for you whatever colors you want. Even an entirely custom design using the roundel as a blank canvas. Give them a call. Not cheap but well worth it.

Let me know what IND says! I also want to remove all chrome from my car.

Sorry for the late response. Christmas and holidays and all the stuff seems to get in the way of car stuff. I contacted IND and they are doing matte black BMW emblems for the front and back and for the wheels. They are on the way so once I receive them I will post some pictures. They ended up charging me the same price as listed on their website since I think it's the same amount of work. I plan to get them covered in a clear coat film just so rocks don't chip them. Fingers crossed that they look awesome once installed.

Received my badges from IND yesterday. I think they look awesome and can't wait to install them on the car. The BMW lettering hard to see on the center wheel caps but that's fine. I am probably going to get them covered with a clear film to protect them against rock chips.
