F02 Keyfob upgrades

Has anyone ever done an upgrade on your fobs?

I did a bunch of AC Schnitzer work with my car when I got it, and one thing that always bothered me was that the BMW key had BMW's logo on it, although my car was badged an AC Schnitzer and as more that type of car vs. a stock BMW. I stumbled on a company when I was looking for logos for the keyfob, and since I have an alpine white with black interior, I went with this design..

I worked with Chris over at Pheonix Bespoke in the UK; amazing professional in design and work, and he matches the same color and type to the car, I will say this is one of a kind and how I like to operate. Just passing along some feedback and ideas to anyone that is about customizing in a clear manner.

I do some painting work, never done a key before but hell I would give it a shot.

PM me, I'd ask for a shell, and cost of a custom AC Shnitzer print + paint supplies. You'd need to strip out your original key and place the circuit board into the new fob shell.

It won't be cheap but very doable.
