My Ride: 2006 Titanium Silver 550i, with all the bells and whistles!!
The roundel on my key FOB fell off yesterday...not sure where.... 
At some point I will make a visit to the dealer for somehting, however, I don't want to make a special trip just for this. My search for a replacement roundel did not go well, but I am wondering if the logos on valve stem covers are the same size? that would be too easy! example: http://cgi.ebay.ca/4-Chrome-BMW-Stem-Valve-Caps-in-excellent-condition_W0QQitemZ180343753776QQcmdZViewItemQQimsxZ20090406?IMSfp=TL090406127001r563
Thoughts?

I switched to my other set of keys but I'll be interested to see what replacement options are for the roundel.

But your are probably right, that would be WAY too easy.
Post results if you try it
EDIT: I just checked my stem caps and they look a little smaller, maybe you could buy a used FOB off of eBay and pry the logo off that one...
