Hey guys, ordered a set of black carbon hood and trunk emblems for my 04 525i, just wanted to warn everybody that they did not fit. I measured before I ordered 82mm (what the ad claimed)but them came in 72mm. Just wanted to make my $30 dollar loss a learning experince for all my fellow E60s

Have you discussed the problem with the seller?

We do not have a fixed return policy because our goal is to work with our customers to make sure both side is happy, and we are willing to work with you to resolve any problems you have; therefore, we will not have any rules like other sellers, instead we will communicate with you and we will have different solution depending on the case.

I got a set just like those for hood, trunk, wheels and steering wheel and they all fit. I got them from euro-spec.net who are great sponsors from the e46fanatics forum.

Sorry to hear about your misfortune.

You have other options. If you paid by Paypal and/or credit card (hopefully Amex). If you contacted seller beforehand to make sure they'd fit YOUR car, and they responded that they would, it should be a slam-dunk in a dispute.

Order from r1racer or Nerweezy.

I just ordered the real CF roundel for my steering wheel. Had I known Trinity offered the real CF roundels for the front and rear I would've ordered from them as well, but I already got a set from eBay.
