Side marker (gill) question.

Hey guys, I recently purchased a pair of gloss black side markers but the badging was black and grey instead of blue and red. Can anyone tell me where I can buy the oem badging sticker so I can swap them? Here are pictures of the difference. Many thanks!

Those dam things aren't cheap. I know because the CF gilles I bought didn't come with any M3 stickers.

The dealers in Ontario want $50 each

You can buy them anywhere really. After a quick search I found these for you

you can reuse your existing OEM badges, just gently take them off your stocks, get some adhesive from autozone, and ur good!

Yeah that's what I did, but just heated them back up and stuck them without any adhesive... Holding strong!

$50 each? Really? One of the little sticker on my wheels fell of and I got one from my dealer for something like $4. Find it hard to believe the side gill sticker is a whole lot more than that...

Edit: Realoem shows them at $28.82 each, not cheap but better than the $50 the Ontario dealer was quoting...

Yup, I can verify this. Cheaper just to buy another set of grilles and use the stickers.
