IND is just really backed up with painted roundels. 12+ weeks. These roundels are very labor intensive to get them right and then for them to pass IND's own QC. for painted center caps and roundels i believe it takes around 10 hours for those 6 items. So instead of taking more orders and not being able to meet a deadline they decided to halt orders temporarily until they can get caught up. IND is a very reputable company and i had a set on order as well. Until they're able to get caught up or add more staff or systems to get these painted quicker we're at their mercy. They're the only ones in the game so no choice but to wait. I ordered mine about 2 months before i took delivery and still had to wait 5 more weeks. all in all they only missed the 10-12 week mark by a few days. and they were very communicative and responsive.

I get it I understand, but at least take a list or a reservations, or some thing of how many people want to get these things made. But I guess we see what happens if I can get my hands on a nice set or wait until it comes back..or just leave that hideous chrome halo around the BMW logo |

I too was waiting for these and IND told me that should be available this fall, but I’m sure it will still be hard to get them as there’s likely a huge backlog.
I should receive my M4 build early next month and I plan on trying to HyperDip the rear roundel like this: https://youtu.be/gmXmV7eExIM?si=IqOaHyYBXIeEaa4- |

We have tried with other painters but none can make these happen besides our master painter. He also has many other projects throughout the week including all the custom paint work you see in our portfolio. Trust us, we want to offer them but only if we are able to meet the ETAs which we currently unable to. Most are unwilling to buy them and not know when they will shipped. We dont blame them.
