SV Concepts II · 07-19-2010, 06:23 PM

Hey guys,

Just thought we'd share this new video of how to properly replace your BMW Roundels. Whether you are replacing a faded, worn out one or simply upgrading to a flashier version....this should be of good help!

Special thanks goes out to Justin aka JZIMAGE for making this awesome vid.

Great thank you!

I would purchase black / white roundels for my 1er if you guys had the whole set available :/

Pol · 08-05-2010, 06:33 AM

Today I recieved the Suction Cup to remove the BMW roundels from my wheels.
Unfortunately but the system doesn't work because it cannot suck enough.

SV Concepts III · 08-05-2010, 11:12 AM

Hi Pol,

It will take a few tries to get enough suction to pull them out, also make sure to lightly wet the surface of the cup so you get a proper seal.

Pol · 08-06-2010, 03:23 PM

The suction cap doesn't work at all.
I wonder if anyone here can demonstrate the contrary.
In my opinion the roundels are too spherical for such a tool and besides, the BMW letters make the surface rough so that it is impossible to draw vacuum.

Did you try lubricating the surface area slightly with some water? This usually helps create more suction for the tool to be utilized to its full capacity.
