I had a look but could not find a c2 2.5 grill badge? Surely there's gotta be one somewhere I think they are NLA available at dealer and if they are they are around Â£250 if not more

Just because you could not see the badge does not mean they don't have it or cant get it. Message them.

They do have a lot of the older badges. Also I found them very helpfull when I was looking for badges four our E36 B3 Touring.

You could also try here..

They also do badges for most Alpina cars, but you will have to message them as all there stock is not on the website.

Alpina model badges are not cheap. We are paying Â£165 for our B3-3.2 badge.

Keep an eye on eBay.de. Not cheap though, I got one a few years ago from there for â‚¬230

Well after Simon saying that they were NLA I am not surprised.

Did you try through Sytner? We were told, even by them at first that our B3 Switch-Tronic badge was NLA. But after trying a different branch, they did make some far reaching enquires and came up with one.

Last resort is keeping an eye on ebay. When you see badges being sold from China send them an email asking if they are able to supply one. We got a standard B3 3.2 badge for Â£25 that way. I must admit that I was amazed at the quality!!

Will see if I can find the old link for you.

Not all of there stock is listed, so send them an e,mail. I found them very quick and helpful.

I have just had a look. They do list the rear 2.5 badge but not the front.

I still think it is worth an e,mail though.

Yes MCB I agree they were also very helpful but again they couldn't provide the front C2 2.5 badge they do have C1 2.5 but not C2 2.5. Appreciate the link
