Default Looking for black emblems

I've found the Audi rings problem but looking for the A6 and 3.0 and Quattro emblems in gloss black. Tries a google search, no luck. Any ideas, other than painting them myself. Ain't gonna happen

I went to ebay and searched for "Audi Emblem" and saw a black quattro one, a black/chrome quattro, a chrome/black superchared one. This is just after 5 pages. Sure if you look through the other 1k emblems you might find a few more.

I searched using "Audi emblem black" and it was one page. Nothing that says A6 or 3.0T.

Take black out of the search, it helps.

Debadge it. That's what I did and it looks much better.

Exactly, there are NO A6 or 3.0 badges after an exhaustive search, thanks for checking also. I might just debadge and use the black rings. Thanks again

Just plastidip them, you can even remove it when you get tired of the black look. The dip will cost you $6. Get it at homedepot.

True. I could try that. But I don't want them matte. Anyway, just removed all of them today. What a pain in the ****! Lots of goo gone used! Ordered the shiny black rings yesterday and a black/red Quattro badge for the front. Should look good. I'd love to get rid of the chrome surround on the front grill but that ain't gonna happen.

Please post pics, I think I'm going to take my rear badges off on the first hot day. Wd40 is supposed to be good, goo gone ate the hood of my e39 540i so I'm a bit scared of it. I asked the local detailing shop but they won't do it. Do you think the dealer would for a half hour of labor or what not?
