martyyn 2 Report post Posted September 23, 2009 How much are the bonnet and boot badges for an e30 at the Stealers ? There are so many on TM but Ive never known what they are from BMW themselves. Ill need two eventually when I get the bonnet and bootlid resprayed so want to know if its just better to go to the dealers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jjs 64 Report post Posted September 23, 2009 Buy some from eBay and grab a few extras when you order. You can flick the extras off on here or TradeMe for approx $30 each, which will subsidise your badge purchase. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shady 0 Report post Posted September 23, 2009 I laugh at my mates etc when they buy something in the shops and I tell them its on Trademe (exactly the same brand or the 2nd best) for less than 1/2 the price. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
laadeelaa 0 Report post Posted September 23, 2009 When my badge flew off my bonnet on the e36, I went and bought a brand new one from BmAuto Barn (Mt Maunganui) for $40. Bargain. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
martyyn 2 Report post Posted September 23, 2009 I laugh even harder when people buy from TM blindly expecting to get a bargain when the item is cheaper in the shops ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Driftit 2078 Report post Posted September 23, 2009 (edited) I laugh even harder when people buy from TM blindly expecting to get a bargain when the item is cheaper in the shops ! Happens so often. Lazy people just jump on Tardme expecting to always get the best deal from the one stop shop. Seen many BMW parts on TM that are purchased straight from EBay and relisted at 1.5x - 2x the price.
