As above, i closed the hatch with the badge in the gap, scuffed the hell out of it lol

Even the steering wheel has the badge stickered
Just not a fan of the badges i think it looks cheap/JDM imo. Installed them on a uncles 335i M-sport, and just the quality of them ect i just think it's a waste of money and doesn't look good. For the tail lights just get LCI Blackline's will look alot better/cleaner.
Not a fan of the cf badges? They look 100% factory, they're immaculate, especially the wheel center caps

Not a single defect or misalignment, the only difference is the front+rear badges have a coating on them, where the bmw ones are a single layer.. I guess because it's a material laid out

I'll order the blacklines tonight though

It's in no way 'cleaner' as instead of a glossy black smooth surface it's a factory 'busy' light, though... Better? Yeah probably
