Matte Black M3 badge molded from plastic

Does anyone still make matte black M3 badges molded from black plastic in the E9X size? I know matte black painted badges are available but would prefer molded plastic for durability. Thx

Get the black chrome one from IND and don't look back... it's pricey but worth it

appreciate it but I already have matte black grilles and side vents, looking to complete the theme with the matte badge and ,imo, molded black plastic looks and fares better than a painted piece.

What sucks its that these used to be available from some vendors. Now it seems everyone just sells the IND badges. Either that or some cheapo fleebay knock offs

No, the T-5R is long gone unfortunately. We do still have an S70 T5 though. I’ll always have a soft spot for those cars. Just the worst chassis imaginable but very fun and old school power delivery. Great and unique sound too.

Yeah good old cars. Being a Swede I obviously ran through a few Volvos, including 245T (with uppgraded turbo and cam...), and a "normal" T5. Had a few bimmers and current M3 will probably be the last (will keep for another while though!). Maybe go back to Volvo after that!
