Placed an order myself. I think it worked out at $13 including shipping for me, but more or less the same.

Interestingly, the part number on that fake looking label is for a full M740Li badge.

I have nothing against IND at all, but I can't justify the price they charge for a set of painted stock chrome badges. It's annoying that the M3 and M4 have competition pack black badges that you can buy from your dealer for a fraction of the price.

Currently I have wrapped my badge in Avery Gloss Black Vinyl, which was a pain to do because you can't simply use a single piece and expect it to stretch around the badge. I had to cut out tiny strips to go in places, and then stretch a large piece over the top. It looks very good, but I'm worried that I'm going to catch a corner when I'm washing or cleaning the car, so I do want a proper black version.

I was planning to wait for the M2 Comp badges to become available as a spare part, and hoping that I could just use the black M2 part for that. If this Aliexpress piece turns out to be good quality, I'm happy!

What I find interesting is the level of deceit. The part is excellent quality so why make the fake package.

From AliExpress, some minor fitment adjustments on bottom drive corner, but quality of the parts still going good. $200 shipped.

eBay has them $300-400 probably from the same manufacturer.

Can you both please share your links to the products? I'm guessing not every seller there has the same quality stuff...

Here's the latest purchase...

Most of the plastic will be covered by the gauge faces. 3D design gauge pod cost $365 and only fits the pre LCI cars. This will fit and cost $4. $10 with fast shipping.

I'm not sure what you guys are talking about. Mine is identical. I use painters tape to mark the original and this is perfect. Except black.....
