Carbon look badges...?

[bigdave139]

So I'm trying to keep my bike black/carbon and gold, and have some lovely carbon bits on the way from Carbonweb(at a very good price!:applause

But i want to swap out the BMW badges on the fairings for something like this..

I have scoured ebay etc and can only find 82, 73, or 68MM versions.... The badges on a Sthou are 58MM.

Any ideas please?!

cheers
Dave

buy 2 sets of these, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-REAL-...arts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item2c6f351625

then sell the other 2 you don't need.

they're just gummed on mate, with 2 locating pins to make sure it's straight.

They look good Dave, I hate the Blue and White badge on a Black bike, I'd like Red n White :biggrin-new:

Hi Phil. no reason they couldnt make some? maybe contact the ebay seller, if he is making them himself ask him, if not ask him who supplies him and if they can do it?

Anyway, just been out cleaning all morning so this seems as good an excuse as any to post pictures
