What you do if the original is still on is get a roll of painters tape, place tape around the badge creating an outline and then take off the original badge, and then re-apply the new inside the outline.

Did this with my m4. Worked perfect.

Sorry to ressurrect an old thread. I've been on the fence about replacing my gray M550i and xDrive trunk badges to gloss black. I'm sure at least a couple of you have done this. Anyone with alpine white have a few pics to share as inspiration?

I have to ask. I see a 2018 540 in your sidebar profile. Please tell me you aren't putting this on a 540?
