BMW Roundel fitted to Radiator cover *PICS* Also Opinions Needed!!
Ok after seeing it done before I decided I liked it so much I would do it myself,
I think it fits very well with the M engine as there is no BMW Roundel on the engine cover (such as the 3.0 and 3.0si) So I got a roundel from a board member, Who had already cut the 3 pegs off needed for the install so that saved me a little time, I then glued it to the radiator cover and viola! I think it looks great and should be there anyway, Heres the pics!

Heres what I need your opinions about, I picked up a badge and want to hear what you think about it,
I just couldn't resist buying it, Even If I don't end up using it in the engine I like the badge, Now I didn't stick it to the intake box, But I want to hear what YOU think of its placement there, A few people I asked said they liked it and it works well with the ///M badge already on the engine cover, Personally, I'm on the fence with it, I like it, but I also like the look without it, As mentioned Its not stuck just "placed" for the photos, Let me know what you think!

I like the intake manifold badge, never seen that badge before. I think the roundel would add some color to the engine bay but I think it might be overkill. But then again the Z4 has like 5 roundels all over the car anyways.

Im not going to count all the ///M badges on the car either
I think theres over 20, The roundel is staying, The ///-Power badge I'm not sure about, I like it with and without,

I think it suits the M engine bay, I don't think the N52 Engine bays could get away with it (which I had before the M) Theres already a roundel on the cover anyway and that would look too busy IMO, I think the older 03-05 Z4's with the M54 all black engine bays would look good with it too,

I do like the roundel, although it takes focus off of the engine itself.
I like the Power badge by itself but not in the shot where you can see the M badge as well.

this the most minor mod i have ever seen. Who is going to look at your engine? The Z4M has enough ///M logos and plenty of BMW roundels. IMO if you want some engine bling then get a carbon fiber engine cover or an CF intake
