Can anyone with a serialized Dinan car able to give me the dimensions for this?

I requested mine from Dinan and have my serial number but they no longer produce them.

Here is an example of the badge in question:

You were issued an S Serial number by DINAN but no plaque? When was this?

Ever since Steve sold way back when, the “new” Dinan has been pretty sh1tty with aftermarket support for new plaques or CARB stickers.

They told me to pound sand, when their 3.91 grenaded on me, or when the seam welds on both of their resonators kept on splitting.

I used to love stopping in their HQ in Morgan Hill to get stuff. Not anymore.

Good luck!

I am going to get it reproduced by someone else but don’t have the dimensions.

Going a bit off topic but when did your diff fail Woody? I remember years ago when member @Wolverine had his Dinan diff go bad and Dinan didn't do anything to help since it was outside the warranty period. This is before Steve sold the company. EDIT: Didn't read all the posts on the thread below but Dinan did eventually offered Wolverine a discounted diff at $2K instead of $3K. He opted to just go back to a stock unit though. Wonder if Dinan would have done something for you if you had shown them this thread back then.

Dinan Diff Failure - Part 2

After a week at the BMW Store here in Cincinnati, they've informed me that my Dinan Diff is defective. I have an aftermarket warranty, but it won't cover the Dinan part. After numerous calls to Dinan and BMW, the resolution appears to be the following: 1. BMW will not cover non-oem parts...

BOOM goes my Dinan 3.91

BOOM goes my 3.91 Well, after 8x,xxx miles, my DINAN 3.91 failed. As the second owner of the diff, and outside of Dinan's warranty period, I have no choice other than getting a new 3.91. I'm slowly loosing all my Dinan points and at the cusp of relinquishing my badge :rofl: How it failed: I...

On my resonators, I had to have Jed’s fabricator fix Dinan’s welding QC.
