I think it is as you wish. I put the M ones and aligned them bit differently, but both ways work I guess

I used a paper template to position the strip and than marked the place with masking tape. Made sure it was roughly the same place on both sides.

Only took a few minutes.

What's the common way to get MPerf parts, post-delivery? shop.bmwusa.com rarely shows the MP selection when you select a car model. Are y'all ordering from getbmwparts with part IDs or having a dealership order them or something? Or from aftermarket retailers like IND?

Thanks for the pic Ravenous666 my rubber mats were a little off at first but I think it's primarily from how they were shipped (rolled up in a square box). They look fine after some settling.

I'm finally ready to install my black badges but I'm annoyed that they're plastic. My IRL bmw friends said they were surprised that they were plastic. I'll probably install them eventually but it's difficult to pull off nice metal badges and replace them with plastic ones.

The original badges are most likely also just metalized plastic.

I'll do it when it gets a bit warmer. It's around 32F at the moment
