Which centers should I use? I think I prefer the BBS but I'm not sure. I popped the emblem out of a center cap from a set of E30 wheels and its the same but I only have 3.

Yeah, I like them both... I'd go back and forth every other week just to see if anybody notices...

Blue BMW caps with Black 5-series. Nice look.

turn the roundel black and it would be perfect.... or stagger them left side, right side...

I just replaced my Borbet black center caps w/blue and black roundels. I like the touch of blue with the black on a black car. Just my opinion, I'm partial to black cars...

Hmm both look good, but I'm leaning towards the BBS centres, since you already have 2 roundels on your car (hood and trunk), why have another 4 on your wheels?

They are 3 piece, 17". They are a bitch to clean but I really like em.

Excellent idea Jeff. I was thinking the same thing since I only have 3 anyway, so its drivers side BMW, passenger side BBS, until I can decide which I prefer. Anybody know where to get the BBS inserts, preferably in Canada? I wouldn't mind picking up some new ones.

I dont know how those are assembled but if a stick on method would work I could possibly cut a rondel from black vinyl. Doing them tiny BMW letters would suck the life out of me tho.

I prefer to slap roundels on all my mods, then everyone believes its supposed to be there, hehe. Black does look nice... so sounds like its time to dress the ol blue emblem with magic marker :D

BBS is what we watch old Monty Python shows on.

Oh, wait that's the BBC...Oh silly me.
