Just a quicky, can someone tell me why some 8's have proper BMW steering wheel badges, and others (like mine) it is just an embossed emblem in the leather.

the four spoke wheel does not have one, just as you said the embossed logo in the plastic. You can buy replica (and occasionally genuine) ones off the Bay for peanuts though.
I bought a full set of wheel centres, bonnet and boot, and steering wheel badges in Carbon for mine whilst still in the Honeymoon period of ownership last year (I now save my dosh for repairs) and fixed the steering wheel one on with a dab of silicone gel, and it's still there
Thanks mate. I think I just bought the same set which is why I asked, the steering wheel emblem is about 5mm to big.
Also the bonnet emblem was completely curved, that is no flat surfaces on the base at all so the point of coontact for the double sided tape is minimal, and really insufficent, did you have the same problem??
Cheers Mark.
Cant remember whether mine was curved or not, but I fixed it in place with Silicone Gel again, and it's still there
The bonnet and boot badges were a pain to get off, but some careful work with a screwdriver and a packing piece did the trick !
Zitat von JaguarBut that will look like nothing
I would replace that ugly steering with another better one.
Mine are replicas - they have to be to be Carbon ones, but they are very well made, and look the DBs on my Cosmos Black 8. The wheel centres are proper mouldings, not the 3M sticky things, and the Boot/Bonnet ones are chunky efforts that are exactly the same as originals except in colour scheme.
