My Brother from NYC...
Bimmer Plug 50th Anniversary Classic M Roundels are fake from China. Here is the lengthy discussion in the BMW G8X M3/M4 Forum. https://g80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1927610 Order from IND, BMW Parts Pros, or Paddleshifterz in Germany. Expect a 1-2 week wait. https://www.bmwpartspros.com/ Search the first few digits in the PNs. "51148087" The remaining PNs are consecutive from 188-196, plus a 545 thrown in. https://ind-distribution.com/search?...uct&q=50+years We are hoping IND will offer custom painted roundels. All that white doesn't look great on all BMW exterior paint colors. https://paddleshifterz.com/product-t...v=7516fd43adaa The matching wheel center caps will only be released for 5 x 112mm bolt patterns (56mm) in newer BMWs. Our E9X M3 and most older BMWs use a 5 x 120mm bolt pattern (68mm). Check eBay for a vendor in Beverly Hills, CA...add the steering wheel emblem. Also no floating wheel center caps will be released. BMW E9X M3 Fitment: 51148087192 or 194 - 82mm (HOOD) 2 Pins/No Adhesive 51148087195 or 196 - 74mm (TRUNK) 2 Pins/Adhesive NOTE: Most E9X M3 roundels mount with 2 pins and don't use an adhesive. But 195/196 74mm Trunk Roundels only come with 2 pins and an adhesive. Studie AG in Japan has some pix on older E/F-Platform BMWs. https://www.studie.jp/endo/126394/ Cheers |

I received the 50th Anniversary wheel center caps 5 x 120 mm (68 mm dia) from the seller on eBay and the quality is excellent. Plastic tabs are not too brittle and the emblem has a clear film (like a new cell phone) to protect the finish, before installation. I will see if they can put the matching steering wheel emblem up for sale individually.

if your car doesn't have a production date of March 2022, why would you put these badges on it?

It's like buying a non-m car and then rebadging to put on an M sticker. Stop, it's embarrassing. Nothing wrong with not having an M car or not having a 50th anniversary car, let it go. -Duke |

BMW doesn't sell M badge retrofit kits. They DO sell 50 Anni Badge retrofits.

Yeah, only if you got a March 2022 M! Lol, also only buy OEM oil and rod bearings, and get all your parts from the BMW dealers. 😎
I need to get 36 year anniversary badges. 😂 |

The eBay seller from Beverly Hills, CA is selling 50th Anniversary Roundels made in China (says Italy on the parts), that are also on Amazon. A full set of hood/trunk roundels, a steering wheel emblem, and four 5 x 120mm center wheel caps for $30. On eBay they charge $100, so they pocket a $70 profit after sending you the Amazon product.
You can still buy the BMW OEM 50th Anniversary parts for the hood and trunk roundels. For F-body ///M cars, the roundels for the hood use an adhesive instead of 2 pins. The eBay kit has 2 pins for the hood/trunk roundels. The BMW OEM 196 trunk roundels are backordered preventing most USA orders from shipping. IND and ECS Tuning can ship quickly what they have in stock. Cheers |

My roundels are faded and some paint is off them, so replacing them with these gives it an added touch and i like the look. Who cares what someone else thinks, it is my car and not a poser mobile anyways
