New style roundels fitted...

Just got a new set of roundels for the M. The older style with the grey plastic ring round the edge soon look rubbish as they let the water in behind the badge after a while (jet washing, etc...)



Look much smarter as they fill the whole hole fully, if that makes sence ?!



Not sure if theae are standard fit now ???

Look good. Funny it's one of the few things which seem to be better quality but cheaper in price than the old version. Now standard from Sept 08 models.

I got them off eeeeBay... Coopers BMW Tonbridge as it happens!

eBay Linky

Tyres are Mich PS2's, not run flats... as all M cars run normal tyres.

Just after posting the link I notice the tyre was a bit soft.... 30 mins later I was down the tyre place getting a screw removed and the puncture repaired.

Only had all four replaced 2 weeks ago !!!

I had my centre caps stolen ove Xmas ---- grrrrr insert rant about chavs etc. here ---- and when I called into my local dealer to buy replacements, found the new ones, with the chrome surround, were listed as being half the price of the old, grey plastic surround ones.

Carl, go outside and look at your roundels. That's the old ones. Read Wills thread and you will see the price at £3.43
