Hood/Trunk Roundel replacements

my roundels on the car are looking pretty beat up and id like to swap them out. ive seen the carbon ones all over the net but I cant confirm if they'll fit the 135 properly. has anyone here purchased any? if so, how are they and where did you get them? id like as close to an OEM fit as possible.... thanks

Flebay has them. You will the E90 trunk roundel for the curved fit, trim off the legs and use 3m tape to attach.

Id be cautious about anything from fleabay as its very hard to assess the quality from their little photos. I bought both trunk and hood roundels and both were shit...

Most of those carbon fiber ones have some pretty terrible clear coat on them. They yellow up really quick. I would suggest emblem overlays so you can utilize your original OEM emblems

i just bit the bullet and went to the stealership to order some OEM roundels. the only thing thats odd is the 1 series trunk has a curve making it a special order. my e39 M5 didnt need a special roundel.... damn you BMW!
