side marker emblems

usaz4mcr8cr · 07-24-2012, 07:01 PM

Just toying with the idea of body colored stickers for the side markers (too many BMW roundels on this car).

Where can I get this?

You mean like this? The real thing?

And cut the hamburger in 1/2 too.

It's in the DIY, pretty easy, I got 4 new lights from EAS, used those instead of my originals. I got the CF Roundels from over seas. Buddy did his too, used red and white over lays instead, but same effect 1/2 the burger, sleeker profile, still see the blinker just fine.

I think body colored stickers would be great. I mentioned it a couple months ago on this forum and no one understood what I was talking about. It would essentially turn into just a turn signal. I haven't had the time, but i wanted to mock it up in photoshop.

I tried it a long time ago & didn't like the look.
It kinda looked like someone forgot to finish something because it's still a busy design area.

I'm toying with an idea to get rid of the burger completely.

Thats why I searched for the real thing, the stick on's just did not look all that hot to me on the computer screen, however my friend put them in red and white on his red Z4 and they do look good.

This would be optimal. No idea on how to go about it, but I think this machine would look more incredible without the roundels on the sides. Something to just replace that whole circle piece but also doesn't interrupt that diagonal line.

^bingo

...likely a winter project when the car is put away.

No I didn't take any because I immediately disliked it.

I had an old roundle laying around so I rattle canned it & taped it on to test the look.
If I still have it I'll see if I can grab a pic for you.

Indeed. I reckon this would work best done in CF and painted to match color. Replication or reuse of the existing clips/attachment would need to be involved as well.

It would be awesome if this was seamless, but in the interest of being able to reverse back to stock I could live with the rounded seam which already exists.

Did anyone who painted their side markers the ones on the front and rear bumper plug their lights on the back bumper back in and if you did was there shine through? And if not did it throw an error? I'm looking to get mine done shortly.

usaz4mcr8cr · 10-03-2013, 12:46 PM

Didn't plug my rear ones, there are no errors lights for them.

ricanbandit · 10-03-2013, 01:08 PM

I have the stickers on now and they suck. Look good at first but after a while look bad, start to shrink and peel. I got the real deal as well, just waiting for sometime to get it done. Modding my new Jeep is taking up some of my play time

jaimebt · 01-31-2014, 12:30 AM
