OEM size and quality gloss black M3 badge??

Anyone recommend a vendor that sell a OEM quality gloss black M3 badge for the boot (trunk!) in exactly same size as the OEM??? Dont know of anywhere here in Germany that sell them and ebay would be hit or miss.

Don't want to order one from the States, have to wait a while for delivery and then have to return it if its poor quality.

Many thanks.

It's not on the IND site, but they do have them. I PM'd Nate a while ago asking about it, and he said they have them.

I am bumping this thread (instead of starting a new one)to see if anyone knows the part number for OEM M3 badge in black....

Recently I was in Singapore and I saw this beauty with a OEM Black Badge at the M dealer there. Don't ask why I did not ask for the part number when I was there!

BMW was coming down on vendors for selling the gloss black. Most shops buy the matte, scuff it and paint it gloss black. If a vendor wanted to really do it right they would buy the OEM chrome one and paint it gloss black because the problem with the aftermarket is the tri color sticker fades just like all non OEM emblems on the car. If you ever have to buy emblems I would always recommend OEM as I had to learn the hard. Does anyone know where to buy the tri colored stickers for the trunk emblem (just the stickers only)? Also, I think the GTS comes in gloss black so there should be a part number out there somewhere. Does anyone know that part number?

This is true. The tri-color stickers on my gloss black emblem from JLeviSW and my gloss black side gills from IND (both of which are non-OEM) have faded. Even my non-enthusiast girlfriend noticed the fading color unsolicited. It's a bit disappointing given those vendors' solid reputation.
