Do many on here have the M Perf rocker panel decals?

I think they'd look pretty nice but can only find 1 melbourne red with them - is it more popular than it appears?

comments / opinions?

Woah woah woah...they're selling DECALS for over $100????

I'm getting the MPPK installed on my car next week when it arrives at port and gave specific instructions to NOT install those decals...if they're selling for over $100, they'll be up on ebay as soon as I get home.

Any recommendations on where to buy them for a good price? I found them on eBay for $50 shipped but after emailing the seller, he let me know the M Performance wording is separate and needs to be put on yourself... Not an issue, just shows they are not official.... Wouldn't mind finding official ones for around the same price maybe?

Thanks!

I seriously doubt that you will find official ones for $50 shipped or thereabouts any time soon. Pretty sure dealer cost is a good bit more than that.

Maybe someone who bought them and is selling at a huge loss as they don't want them maybe..

I'm not too crazy about mine either.

Just give me the thicker steering wheel and better brakes without all the Ms. M decals should be for M cars.

Are you sure these come out with the Power Kit?

They are part of the MPPK. My CA told me they would automatically be applied at the VDC when the MPPK was installed. The car was delivered to the dealer with the decals on. I told CA to remove them, which he did. M Sports have altogether too much M badging for my taste.

There are two types of M Performance rocker panel decals: the ones that are shown in that Melbourne red pic, and the other decals that come inside the power kit (these are the ones where the letters are separate).

Hey, this PPK could be very well M worthy when talking about straight power numbers. If my whip shows up with the decal attached, so be it.

Well, I like it, but then I have the Aerokit all round, but what I did with the MPerformance sills that go under the decal, I color matched it, so personally I think it blends in the decals nicely. But unfortunately the sills will be extra.

LOL, I put mine on my desk at work. No way they were going on my car.

Getting mine installed on Monday. I think they look good with the M Performance aero kit.

I think you guys confuse the "M Performance" logo decal and the black rocker panel decal. I think the rocker panel decal looks good without the M logo. If the non official one comes without the logo then that's the way to go.

Folks are way too sensitive to these M branding stickers. If BMW says they go there, I say slap 'em on. I doubt any of you are peeling the M stickers off of your M Sport steering wheel, rims or door sills. You bet I will be rocking those decals, engine cover and whatever they have included with the package.

You have done everything right to this car. It looks insanely good looking! And the EBII certainly shows well here.

Saving this one to my "f30" collection.
