wheel ///M badge fall off?

sross1 · 12-31-2011, 12:17 PM

I noticed the ///M badge fell off one of my wheels as I was washing it today. Is this common? I only use Sonax on the rims and hand wash.

luis_m3 · 12-31-2011, 12:21 PM

Mine never fell off, but it's just a sticker (had to put on another set after powder coating my rims), so it is possible for them to fall off.
They're cheap... Just get some more from the dealership.

I honestly think I'm gonna follow Rolf and leave M3Post. Shit happens, the wheel badge fell off. Is it common? Maybe. Could happen to one guy a hundred times and zero to another. I never hand wash my car with sonax and all these products, I haven't lost a center cap yet. Go get some more. Not an issue.

Dude, this is gonna make you leave?

How about the M3 Is It A sports car thread? Waste of keyboard clicks. Retarded.

I second that...
There have been some pretty bad threads lately.

I really hate this one... I got dumber and dumber as I kept reading.
Sorry OP, we took over your thread, but I do wish you a Happy New Year; now go get some more stickers!

Are you serious? I think it's a valid question that deserves legitimate responses.

Don't let the door hit ya in the ass.

Dude you haven't seen ANYTHING until you've gone to e90post. I come over to you guys in the M3 boards to get away from the insanity. I tell myself I'm going to leave every day and once even sent mods a message to delete my account

But, there's still some good information from time to time.

edit: my 1,000th post was complaining about e90post to you. What a fail. Lol

AddictedToBavarian · 01-01-2012, 10:37 AM

BTW OP I'm very back and forth on Sonax. I use it from time to time, but it seems a little rough on the finish.

crabman · 01-01-2012, 12:12 PM

I'm thinking nothing should fall off a relatively new car in regular use. It happens and obviously not a big deal in this case but if it had happened to me I would have wondered if it was common myself just as a curiosity. Thats all he did, ask if it was common. There was no rant, no freak out. I'm not understanding the grief here.

Radiation Joe · 01-01-2012, 03:58 PM

and people wonder why I'm so negative all the time. If the mods want to ban anyone, they should ban retards that think this is a legitimate subject.

CanAutM3 · 01-01-2012, 04:04 PM

I lost one too after 2 years. Stealer charged me 25$ for the replacement sticker

Gkap · 01-01-2012, 04:07 PM

go to dealer and get it replaced.

ss134 · 01-01-2012, 07:27 PM

OP - 4 brand new stickers for less than $10 /thread

DBH · 01-01-2012, 07:34 PM

They're just stuck on with glue. Sometimes they fall off.

Bavarian autosport sells them at $6.95 each.

motortrend · 01-01-2012, 08:52 PM

I know I'm doing the same thing (though trying to prove a point) but why the hell do people keep responding the same damn thing (plus some other useless stuff) if the question was pretty much answered in the second post.

crabman · 01-01-2012, 10:53 PM

Actually no one answered his question which was "Is it common?". They just said they're cheap, go get some more. I still see no reason why this thread would cause ire or compel someone to call people retards compared to many of the other threads here which ask questions which I found answers to just reading the forums trying to learn about these cars as a new owner. As I said before if I was washing my relatively new car and anything falls off without any particular event precipitating it I would certainly be curious to find out whether it was a common problem myself regardless of cost. I did not find a thread on this in a search which would leave you with asking the question. Thats what forums are good for and this section subtitled "Come discuss everything" would seem the place to do it.

immiketoo · 01-01-2012, 11:19 PM

SOMEBODY CALL THE WAAAAAAHHHHMBULAAAANCE!

OMG what a bunch of pansies.

OP, buy new ones. If you want to be a cheap ass, photo copy them in color and hot glue them on yourself
