Blacked M3 Badge.

Hello all. I am in the process of returning my M3 back to the stock body. I bought Constantins E90 which is badass! The car currently has a one off Hamann body kit. Reason I am returning the car back to factory body is because I am a purest for the most part and the fact that the E9X is flawless IMO. I am looking for a factory colored M badge with the 3 blacked out. See picture attached. Any one know where I can find this?

Word of caution, the colors will start to fade over time. Not sure if INDs is better but mine looked really junky after the previous owner had it on there for about a year or so.

I currently have a black out M3 badge thats been on for about 3 years with no fading. Problem is that its in MFEST colors. I don't have a problem with MFEST, I just prefer the original M colors.

Plasti-dip. I did it to mine last year and it still looks great. For $10 and 30 minutes of time, it looks fantastic

Got mine from IND. Looks great, but after a year colors are fading, so I'm going back to stock now. I learned that no matter what the aftermarket product is, there's just no way the quality will be better than OEM.

If you buy the aftermarket, $35 and under ones, I imagine they will fade and look bad quickly. Go for an OEM custom painted. Though if you want a Matte finish, not sure the best option.
