Black Boot M4 Badge

Hi does anyone know where I can get a quality M4 Black Boot Badge in the UK? IND in the States do one which is a painted OEM Badge but not cheap at $73 but the deal breaker was the $88 for shipping. And that was their cheapest option.

Did you know that when you mess with the BMW logos or M logo's that a german guy kills a kitten?

are you sure it wasn't 88$ including shipping? I've had that mistake with IND myself.

PM them and check.

Neil.

I thought maybe I was going senile so I checked. No $73 PLUS $88 shipping.
I can post a 500g parcel to the states by Royal Mail for £5.60. WTF.

lol.

best to bundle it up with someone else / other parts. I did a huge group order that I brought back on a plane from the US last year and saved loads of M5Post guys a ton of cash. If I'm in the US again I'll see if I can do it.

Cheers,
Neil.

Thanks.

I have emailed them so we will see what they come back with. It is ironic that we are having to buy bits for a European car from America.

My understanding the IND products are their own?

They can supply BMW genuine parts and they cost less than the UK.. but that's just the way life is unfortunately..

I'm looking to order:

Carbon wing mirrors
Black kidney grills and side grills.

Would like the rear spoiler but not sure if they can post that safely

Wait for Neil to find out when he's going to the USA :-)

My M3 doesn't come in until mid Oct. My sales-exec is away until Wed, I'll need to get an update from him.

The BMW OEM black side grills are considerably cheaper than the IND ones. I just fitted mine today. And you don't need to buy the IND front grill. Buy the BMW OEM gloss black grill for a standard 4 series and then swap over the slats from your M4. Easy swap and a lot cheaper. I have also fitted the BMW carbon boot spoiler.

yeah I was surprised by someone saying IND was cheaper, without the shipping maybe.

I've got rear diffuser, spoiler, front lip and front splitters installed and today they are installing the side skirts.

Mods so far:
Original rear diffuser Carbon Hydro printed (I cannot justify over £1k for carbon diffuser but I want one)
Rear BMW Carbon Spoiler
BMW Gloss black 4 series Kidney Grills with M4 slats
Gloss black side grills.

I am wanting to replace chrome back badge and paint silencer back box black.

I am toying with HR springs and spacers but I am a little concerned about rubbing and bottoming on speed bumps. A carbon front lip (Splitter) might be nice.

You need to unclip the single slat inner and replace with the double slat inserts off your car.

Ok, so IND have got back to me.

They say the cheapest that they can ship the badge is $56.44.

Question. I am so out of touch with prices or does that seem very expensive?
