50th Anniversary Badge Emblem on Skyscraper Grey G80 M3

MMM.PWR · 04-01-2022, 09:08 PM

Not a fan of the white part on this design. Like others have said, IMO, it will look good in cars that have the colors in the badge - white, red, blue, and maybe black. But I can't picture it looking better than OEM on my car, which is green.

Will have to wait and see others get them first but as of now, I am happy with the regular badges I have.

M4Tejas · 04-01-2022, 09:11 PM

Blonde, Brunette or Redhead. It's a free world. I tryna find some soon.

Is this now "standard" or do you have have to specify it on the build sheet? (I want it!)

FrozenGT · 04-01-2022, 09:54 PM

SMDH!!!! BMW no no no no-

They should have pushed the BMW words up into upper area of the emblems. This would give the impression of Classic emblem. Looks like they taped the standard BMW emblem into another emblem.

Pretty sure it's the same dude who designed the front end or a completely different department designed these. I don't know what's wrong with Bmw this does not look good the classic emblems deserve to be on classic BMW retro cars.

No no no- 🙄🙄🙄

This is just as bad as the lime green wheels that they thought looked cool!! No no no

IcewaterPete · 04-01-2022, 10:01 PM

I’m liking that badge!

yousefnjr · 04-01-2022, 10:01 PM

Any day now we’ll be seeing these on some dudes 328i

mose121 · 04-01-2022, 10:01 PM

If you love the history of BMW Motorsport, how can you not love this? At least the posers with standard Roundels will be easy to identify. 😝

It's literally the exact same design as the original BMW Motorsport emblem from 1973. Perfect homage if you ask me.

I don’t like the badge. Worked for the antics…

Same for the new BMW emblem.

I like the real good one…

In Switzerland it's a no cost option you can add to your build. It's one of the first few options in the configurator. It's not ticked by default.

I have ordered my car in green (malachite) as well and this option was on it by default. Which green do you have/on order? Do you think it would look off in your opinion or just a preference?

The UK is in Europe, geographically. This is the same as saying "is this a U.S./North America thing".

Limegrntaln · 04-02-2022, 03:48 AM

I spec'd my 22 the same way I originally ordered my car, and they showed up in the summary as standard equipment. There is a zero cost option, on the options page, to click, for you to get the standard emblems.

siwatkins · 04-02-2022, 05:50 AM

I love them - sets this year apart. Granted some people will retrofit, like they do with M badges, but only 50 year m/M lite cars will be wearing them as a legit option.

They're going to look best on a white vehicle. I think on any other color it's going to stand out a bit too much.

ROBERT1183 · 04-02-2022, 08:25 AM

Looks really good on Skyscraper. I saw it on a Dravit car like mine and was not a fan.

Waterbelly · 04-02-2022, 08:51 AM

Think it will look ok on my Melbourne Red Metallic G80 and the 826M bi-colors…we shall see…

coldsoup · 04-02-2022, 09:25 AM

I think it looks cheesy. Only cars I see on the road that people changed their stock emblems on are Honda Accords with lowering springs, stock rims, and a big, red, "H". Or I'm just turning into the old, grumpy guy. 😂

My car is IOMG, I wouldn't worry too much about it if your car will already come with the new badges, it's not like the standard badge doesn't have white in it - and I do think it will look better on a darker green like yours. I think it will look fine, I probably wouldn't swap the badges had my car come with them, I just don't know if I want to pay extra and go through the effort of swapping them. Especially since it's not just M cars coming with this badge.
