Template for Badges? (Help Needed)

Hello everyone,

I was wondering if anyone had access to the templates for the M3 badge, as well as the xDrive badge?

I would appreciate any help here.

Thanks guys.

For templates, try the Bimmerpost DIY section or eBay.. people sell vinyl overlay kits that include positioning templates. If you’re debadging/rebadging, the factory badges come with an adhesive guide, and you can also use masking tape + dental floss to mark the original spot before removal. What exactly are you trying to do with them?

I had them removed for the PPF and never installed them back.

I can’t seem to find anything after searching. Could you point me in the right direction if you don’t mind? I would greatly appreciate the help.

So weird that the M3 is missing from these https://www.adhesivetemplates.com/find-templates?search=1

Good luck!

Perhaps you can take a measurement from a car at a local dealer, or attend a cars & coffee or BMW CCA event where you might find a similar car. Good luck!

I'd suggest a roll of blue painters tape and a trip to a couple C&Cs as mentioned above...If I saw you and ask for a hand, I'd allow it.

There are no templates. Not in the TIS or as any BMW part:item.

BMW has you make your own templates — in tape — by marking your existing badge positions. Since you didn’t do that- do what been suggested and copy from a similar car/model.

Here’s their instructions:
