Where to purchase M side badge & DOT side cover

tekpro007 · 05-21-2023, 05:58 PM

I was looking to find the M side badges and covers for the orange side marker in Portimao blue. I would like to return the car to it’s European design like it should be. The only good thing about the US model is the increased HP. The links in the forum are old. I was wondering if anyone has any updated links?

Thanks! This is exactly what I was looking for. Do you know if the European emblem was black? I only see the black M emblem for sale.

You could try looking for part numbers at the link provided below then perform a Google search on the part number. Note: the link is for the Euro version G29. You'll want to start a new search there if shopping for parts for the US model. You'll also discover the listing hasn't apparently been updated since 2019.

Here's the link for cerium grey emblems. For the M40i, I assume the emblems are black with the shadowline package, otherwise cerium grey but I'm not sure.

Here's the link for black.

The emblems on my car (with Shadowline) are cerium. I don’t think the black emblems are available as a factory option in the US.

In Canada, we get the "M" side badges and the increased power.

IIRC got mine from Amazon through the Chinese Company that knocks off all kinds of BMW items.

Came with a certificate of authenticity guarantying 50BHP increase when applied.

Got mine on Amazon as well!
