installing P/N 51-14-8-094-237 - OEM Cerium Grey "M" Fender Badges

Coconut

End of day probably depends on who installs but are these fender badges parallel with ground or are they slightly angled with the fender line? Photos of euro m240's look like parallel w ground. Ultimately mine is a sapphire black so you can't see the fender line as well defined as a grey/white bmw. BUT thought I'd throw the question out there.

I'm installing some later today... and any tips or is it one shot stick it on? I'm using a soft seamstress style rolled tape measure and painters tape to square off as best I can.

Thank you!~

Slightly angled with the fender line. I lined it up with it parallel with the ground and thought it looked slightly odd. It’s one shot stick it on, no room for error to reposition. Make sure to clean the paint surface well and use either 3M adhesion promoter or diluted 50% rubbing alcohol before sticking it on.

IIRC, M cars don’t have them. They usually have a side vent thing.

People seem to get terribly mixed up with an M car, M Performance accessories and M Sport.

Anyone have a link to where I can find good quality silver M badges for the 2025+? IND only has the black that I can see.

Thanks for posting the fender badge placement. I ordered a pair of M badges for my 2025 M240I and this will be helpful once they arrive. Here is a photo before. I'll post another photo after they are installed.
