Where can I grab a new BMW hood/bonnet emblem? Mine is all faded and unrecognizable for the most part. Thanks!

Actually, they both work. bmaautoparts takes you to a flash intro then onto bmaparts. They both end up in the same place.

Good deal.

Rip one off another BMW, hehe :D Use a bangled car as your emblem donor!

Unfortunately the new ones are far lesser quality and will need to be replaced more often than the original, therefor , if you by chance run across an original in above average shape it may be worth the purchase.

Those new ones are plastic right? Are the older ones metal?

Yeah, the old one I ripped off to replace was one beefy son of a gun!

Even the appliqué is cheap. It’s more like an aluminum backed sticker pressed into the base.

The old ones are more like a enamel finish on the aluminum back.

Since you're replacing the bonnet/boot... consider your wheel caps as well! No one likes faded yellow emblems... not me anyway.
