CSL wheels question...
 

...can the miniature "M" badges on the wheels be purchased seperately from BMW?

Yes they can,you can also get them on Ebay.;)

any recommendations for the best glue to use for the badges ?

They come with Sticky backs.;)

that makes sense :thumbs:

Although, I have a set of 4 that were removed from the wheels pre -refurb that now have no sticky.

Genuine are £5 each !!

Cheers as usual Neil :).

I think they were probably bought off someone on here, as he mentioned that he bought them three years ago off a guy who was converting his CSL into a race car ;).

Just need some Cups now :).

Forgot to ask, using the ebay shop - isn't any cheaper than going direct to a local dealer in your experience?

And don't buy centre caps off eBay, they look exactly the same but don't fit properly. Get them from BMW.

BMW Direct are the same price for parts as the Dealerships
However one charge of £1.99 post for multiple items is sometimes convenient.

Cups: They don't always show up as being available, I looked for a week at rears only then spoke to 'Brian' at Camskill, he knows where we're going and who's coming with us ;)
Mine were delivered last Thursday, See: http://www.cslregister.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10176 Good Luck :thumbs:

BMW Car Club membership is handy - 10% off all parts.

Regarding the centre caps - I can only find these, which are a different part number?

Slightly OT and apologies for jumping in on this thread, but does anyone use the (?plastic) wheel bolt covers?

My car just has the wheel bolts showing and they stand out a bit, not being the same colour as the wheel.

I can see replacements on Ebay, but any idea as to the BMW part number?

On option is to paint them black with Hammerite. They'll look smart then.
You can do it after you've bolted the wheels on if you use a small brush, straight onto the surface rust, doesn't take very long.

What I do is get an old shoe box or something and pop the bolts into the lid of it. Then you have a perfect platform for spraying them.

Just be careful when refitting them again.

I use the plastic locking wheel nut covers but they inevitably go missing when it comes to getting new tyres. My fault for only checking once I get home. I am not sure of the part number but I know they used to have BMW logos embossed on them but now seem to be just plain matt plastic.
