JCW Front Grille Badge

Is there meant to be a backing plate to the JCW Badge that fits on the JCW Aero Kit grille or will the two bolts/washers/nuts hold the badge in place securely?

Thanks.

My friend got his (RARE) Front Badge for £25 and his Rear Badge for £15! So think the person selling them for that exstortionate price is snapping them all up thn relisting them at a massive profit at £100.

Theres are deffinetly Copies as they are identicle to mine in everyway, the copies are smaller due to copyright law at 7cm/1cm. Mine and his are both 12cm/2cm. The sellers brother works at JCW and gets them from there. Doubt JCW stock copies. As long as you keep an eye out for them, you can get them at good prices.

Considering the Front badge can only be sold with the JCW tuning package that seems abit odd. As for the fback they are £60 from BMW Parts Dep. I have an account with BMW for my garage and still only get a slight discount from RRP on the back ones.

seems the parts dept you deal with then don't have a clue what they are supplying Front JCW Badge Part Number ends 175101, Rear JCW Badge Part Number ends 175102, they are £46.81 each + VAT , yes you do need a JCW Chassis Number but the badges can be bought separately Front & Rear

BTW, while we are on the subject of JCW Parts, I have been waiting patiently for the update from you reg the R56 JCW Exhaust Trims.... needless to say I'm sure I'll be waiting another while

Oh is that so Mr Sarcasm.

Nun the less i got my JCW exhaust trim modified the hell out of it with no luck. the only way of getting it on is to cut the larger diameter part of you origianl exhaust end (without the trim) then it should slide on with little to no modification but when you have paid alot for a car Warranty counts so decided against it. So the answer is the R56 "S" JCW exhaust trim cannot fit the COOPER (as far as i am aware/tried) unless you go to drastic measures and cut you original exhaust.
