So I was driving about 85 today coming back from a trip and had something hit my window. I didn't know wtf it was, so I finally got home and come to find it was BMW emblem, and the top was GLUED on. I guess thats what I can expect buying anything from JBSpeed. Anyway, do you guys think I should go back to stock blue or order another set of carbon fiber roundels? Its been so effin hot here I guess the glue melted.

that actually happened to me with my OEM roundels. The back silver part of the roundel was still on the car and the colored logo part peeled off.

Phil, saw in the other thread that you're interested in the all black roundels. Get it! I have a black car, and it looks great. Not sure how it'll look on white, but it'll be different/unique for sure!

The other day I was driving out of a parking lot, a girl kept staring (and she made it very apparent with a quizzical look on her face) at my car because she's never seen my emblem before. That or me, lol.
