bmw m6 badge replacement rear/front

RKP-M6 · 03-27-2017, 05:58 PM

hi guys. I am swapping out my badges on my m6 coupe with these:

I wanted to make sure these will work for the rear badge because i know the rear view camera is under that badge and i want to make sure that rear badge just simply pops off and you put the new one on. Any insight is great, thank you!

A strong suction cup and only plastic tools. Plastic fishing line works also, make sure you use blue painters tape around the roundel so you don't scratch the paint around it.

Speaking of this. Parked my car, I put it in reverse. Popped the trunk, got out, (car running just wanted to grab something) and the trunk thing had the camera out. I forgot, thought it was broken. Derp.

Anyway, I want to do this mod. I want to get new center caps to match. I think it will look real nice, plus I ordered a CF front lip and rear diffuser. The new look will go nice with the new badges.

Ha! Yeah the camera doesn't go back in until you start driving. I think with the wheel caps matching the roundels it will look good! I was thinking about changing mine, but the blue M calipers make me want to keep the blue in the roundels.

I received basically two pieces, a blank adapter with pins and a sticker for the blank adapter. I ended up just placing the stickers over the existing emblems because removing was going to possibly damage the paint. Looks like they are factory. These have been on over a year with no issues.

The roundel on the trunk I'm scared to try as the camera is underneath it so I'm scared it will mess up the camera.

Warrior75 · 03-29-2017, 12:27 PM

The roundel opens up and the camera comes forward. Stickers definitely not an issue.
