Black and White Roundels

myone · 11-20-2011, 12:00 PM

I ordered black and white roundels for my convertible through J Levi Streetworks, but they are having trouble getting the trunk roundel. Has anyone used the decals for the roundels? Do you think if I took it to a custom shop, that the original roundel could be painted? All the other roundels on my car are black and white except for the trunk and it's driving me nuts. Anyone out there have any good suggestions? Thanks!

The decals are easy and hold up pretty well -

do you even know what the roundel represents? black or red roundels seem foolish to me once you know your bimmer history. just my .02

I changed all mine to dark silver to match my Space Gray paint. I bought my decals from Bavauto.com. They work great and look awesome!

Agree with you.
However jugging by what i have seen on this forum.
Alot of people like to pimp their car.............with matching colour or alot of other things.
I guess it's a personel choice to make your car look like........
But, if you ask me, There is a few thing on the car that should remain untouch.
And one of these thing is the thru colour of BMW spirit.
this is my personel 2 cent.

I was going to say that too.
I got one (the white and blue) for $4. My dealer wanted $23.

My roundels are red and black. Black propeller blades against a blood red sky

FWIW, bimmian.com is selling the vinyl stickers for the roundels for 15 bucks a sheet for black friday. The CF ones are normally around 40 bucks with shipping, and the others around 30 (if I remember correctly), so if you're looking to change up the colors on the trunk then I'm sure this route will be a little easier on the wallet..
