Red Start / Stop Button For BMW E Chassis Now Available!

Xer0449 · 04-20-2018, 07:30 PM

I just got mine and popped it in. I have to say that the quality appeared to be lacking when I first looked at it. My first thought when I opened the package was "$30 for this?!"

The picture actually helps it look better, but in the future I hope the red buttons can be made the same way as the blue ones, and that I can exchange...

Still a great update. Matches my NRW red DCT paddles nicely.

It isn't made the same exact way as the stock or blue one(from what I can see of the pic of the blue one) but it looks perfectly fine in person and installed.

My pics (sorry for the glare):

Here's how mine looks after a few days...

Hoping there's a revision or something...

Yeah the white for the lettering isn't the best, I will probably just redo the white myself if/when it starts to look bad.

You have some dirty paws.

Does not look too great after only a few days use.

You would think so from the pic, but no sir - never touched this button with dirty hands...

If you look at this thread, somebody did a really nice up close comparison.

6ixSpd · 04-25-2018, 04:22 PM

Seems like the paintwork on the red one is so dull, no reflectivity compared to the blue one which has less orange peel too.

Mocho213 · 04-25-2018, 04:31 PM

Anybody have good photos of the blue? Normal + night shot? Considering everybody's replies about the red button doesn't seem to be holding out that much. Considering all that though still interested in how the blue buttons are doing.

IllSic_Design · 04-25-2018, 04:38 PM

I think I'll try a bimmerland or whatever one if this one goes to shit as the quality of it from the picture looks great.

BSM n54iS · 04-25-2018, 05:06 PM

Still looks better than the yellow one

NYBulldog · 04-25-2018, 05:20 PM

Yeah I'll keep my boring black one... at least I've got the red ring on it. Blue looks awesome.

grzes · 04-25-2018, 05:51 PM

is it just me thinking that this button is not worth $30? Will follow up later and see how they do look after few months, that red after few days do not look promising

BSM n54iS · 04-25-2018, 06:57 PM

this is like the cheapest 'mod' to be done and its being analyzed like RB Turbos

but I understand, just funny pointing it out

G-Hindu · 04-30-2018, 12:44 PM

Well.....
