Badges....paint them, dip them, eBay?

I want to change the trunk and sides to black. What's the best way? I understand that some of the copies are the wrong size....had a good experience? Thanks for the info..

I bought mine on eBay - turned out perfectly. Identical.
Some of them come as individual letters, much harder to mount.

Best quality is to prep and paint your oem badges

but many are using eBay Chinese badges and are doing fine ... they are not exactly the same as you oem badge sizing likely to avoid copyright infringement etc

Mine were so close I could not tell a difference. But then to say "Chinese" doesn't really mean much any more - many vendors of course.

I eBay'd it. Badges are perfect. Only problem is that they don't come straight and have to be applied one piece at a time.
