Just got my set of 166's in today and they didn't have an M badge on them.... They are replicas and have the appropriate indent on them for the decal but decals were not included. Any idea where on earth I can find the decals for them? Also - anyone know what the diameter width is on our center caps? I want to replace mine to carbon fiber....

Much appreciated!

Damn your good - but thirty-something bucks for 4 decals? Seems kinda ridiculous doesn't it?

Where did you get the replicas from?

Can you give us a report on how they work when they are installed?
