Dear Members Can anyone inform me were to get Alpina decals apart from the main dealers.I need the boot badges and also the grill badge. I have booked the car in to get the front painted (becuase of stone chips) Its an E30 and I want to make it a replica. The car is already the correct colour e.g. its blue but when the light shines on it it turns purple. Any ideas on what model to make it. I have been told a B3 but I noticed a C2 in my local Autotrader. Any help would be appreciated. I know ive asked before but any ideas on images and were to view the differnt model E30 Alpinas |

There is a company called Cooks Ferry in Enfield, Middlesex that can supply the badges to you. Be warned though, the boot badges are something like £70 each and its the same again for the front grille. If they get pinched your in trouble.........
Dont forget you'll need the genuine 16" rims and badges which aren't cheap......... ------------- Reza Q BEng (Hons), MEng, MIEE 1991 320I SE Lux coupe, 145K 1990 325I Sport Auto, 143K 1988 M3, 65K |

There are quite a few Alpina, Schnitzer, Racing Dynamics and M power badges and emblems on ebay.co.uk They are of course copies. But knowing how easily these are knicked off beemers, is it worth paying out for originals? Andy 540i Birmingham ------------- Badger540 West Midlands |

When you add up the cost of badges, decals, spoilers, wheels, steering wheel and gearknob, your replica will cost you alot of money and you would probably have a genuine Alpina for the same money.
Unless insurance is mega money, you should look into a genuine Alpina, but they are not cheap to maintain. ------------- Kevin_1990_318iS |

The Alpina C2 was a 210bhp 2.7litre, are you sure you wanna embarrass yourself putting that badge on your car?!?!?!? Genuine rimz are expensive and badges will cost you upwards of £40!!
