Got the wheel trim fitted today (along with the gearknob and splitter/side blades) and it's excellent! As you say it's expensive but looks great.

Good point on mixing with the autoid carbon though - they're splitting kits now so going to get the right side dash piece when they have it in stock - hopefully it matches....

Where did you get that 50 year wheel badge from? I have the 50 year badges on my car and it's always a minor disappointment that the steering wheel BMW logo doesn't match!

Came from Etsy - German seller but their shop doesn't seem to be around anymore.

It's good quality tbh - went through a couple to get one that looked OEM etc. There are a few other shops/sellers offering them but can't comment on the quality.
Need to re-do mine though as it's not quite central....

Yeah does look (and feel) great! Hopefully less risk of marking as well....

Yep splitter and blades on too!

Jammy sod!🤣

Got mine from ebay too but again my guy seems to have vanished. Search ebay for 46mm 50yr steering wheel and you should hit a few. Quality of mine is about 99%, 1 wee blemish but not too noticeable thankfully but i cant say i wont try another if i can find one who'll deliver to NI.

Wheel Badge Haven't seen these, so not a recommendation just a link

Are they stick on or direct replacements?

For the wheel, stick on/overlays.

The first 50yr wheel badge I bought had a small blemish near the bottom which always bugged me, even though, from arms length, it was hardly noticeable.

I ordered one from the link above for a laugh seeing as it was only £6.99, thinking if its [email protected], I can stick it on the tool chest! Actually turned out fine, not OEM but 95% and again from arms length, you'd be hard pushed to see the difference.
