Could someone post a picture of the badges (front and rear) on an E30 Alpina B6 2.8.

I have an E28 Alpina B2.8 that needs new ones. As it is a UK only model and only 18 were built I'm told that Sytners used the E30 B6 2.8 badges to make up the B2.8 badges.

Here are the B2.8 badges...

I just wanted to verify this before spending a lot of time and money locating a set.

Many thanks.

You'll probably have to have them made. I know that badges for my C2 are no longer available, and yours is the same year.

If they were still available, they'd have been £86 each too. 8O

Here's one from a quick Google:

I'm pretty sure the E36 B6 2.8 uses the same badges as the E30 B6 2.8.

Hind Heath, my local specialist always seems to have loads of Alpina & ACS badges although I've not seen those in there. Might still be worth giving them a try though. Got an Alpina bonnet roundel for a couple of quid the other day so prices don't seem too bad.

By the way, is the car in the pic an '86C from Crewe? I'm sure there used to be one of these running around about 3 years back when I was blatting about in a 735iSE & got thoroughly had by it!

Alpina roundels are not genuine, alpina or BMW for that matter never did an alpina roundel.

Plenty on ebay though.
