Transformed roundels

Once again boredom strikes again...so i thought of a quick and easy mod.

Black roundels at Bimmian...$20
Black roundels at eBay .....$18
Making your own ...............Priceless.
Literally, $0

I like it, wasn't sure at first but its a new look and haven't done a custom mod in a while. Thanks for your comments, good or bad.

Wait a sec...aren't you the same numbnut that posts nonsense whenever someone blacks out their wheels or adds black details to their X etc...commenting that it takes away from the "classiness" of BMW?!

Still taking your antiemetics?

No car washes for these X's. I dont even let the dealer wash it after they service it. I do my own washes just to make sure.

I thought about doing this with my left over vinyl... did you use a stencil of some sort? Did you use an exacto knife with a print out of roundel?

How damn it, how!
