Default black rear trunk emblem??

I have been looking around alot and noticed a thread that someone painted their rear trunk emblem black. I was wondering if any company sold one that was black? My car is silver with black stripes and I really thought a black trunk emblem would set it off. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks

You can plasti-dip it. A ton of people do it and, if done right, it looks good. I just plasti-dipped my decklid today and I think it looks great. Plasti-dip can be found at Home Depot or Lowes and youtube has a ton of tutorials. If you have any questions about it feel free to ask me or anyone else here. Also, where in Kansas are you at?

That or you can just tape the center then paint it using Krylon brand paint.
They have a good paint for plastics in their lineup of spray paints.

I'm not a plasti dip guy but that is one item I would not mind using it on.

That's not as good looking as a stock emblem painted at ALL in my opinion.
And 135 bucks..Really?
How much to get some spray paint or plasti dip...6-7 bucks?

I know he was asking where to buy and you DID actually answer his question better but DAYUM
I'd go the do it yourself route on that job without blinking!
