Must admit I bought the cheap “ALPINA” boot badge as a back up for around £20.

They are exactly the same size as original used for the E90 series but the letter profile is slightly more rounded, the corners are shaved off more prior to plating.

No doubt the plating won’t be half as thick and the fixing tape cheap, but hard pressed to tell the difference unless you put it up to the original if new.

Recommended parking space width is a standard minimum 3 Metres if memory serves, that looks tight but it is a 7, I couldn’t use it with my arthritic hips.
