Roundels on Seibon trunklid/hood?

shift330 · 05-27-2009, 11:17 PM

Has anybody out there gotten BMW roundels on their Seibon CF hoods or trunks? I've been thinking about adding them since so many people don't know what kind of car I have (someone asked my if it was a Subaru or a lexus

) The ttrunk lid doesn't seem to have a shape that would accept a roundel and the hood doesn't have an impression to put the roundel in but I'm wondering if anyone has a solution that looks good?

Just cut off the two prongs on the back of the roundel, and use double sided tape to attach it to the hood. As for the trunk, since there is no indentation, you could try bending a roundel, and securing it with double sided tape, or i heard that you can try a z4 roundel which is more curved. If you really want to secure it to the car (I think tape would be enough), you can drill holes, and use the grommets for the roundels, and use double sided tape.

Yeah 3M double sided tape would be my only option since I'm to scared the CF would crack if drilled into...

thanks for the idea, I'll look into the Z4 roundel.
