Default Red Supercharged Badge

Looking to replace the "standard" V6T badge with the "Supercharged" Badge, looking for pics of the Red Supercharged badge on an Ibis White S4 - I have the Ti Option and think the Red rather than Carbon Fiber badge would look better, already have red in the front and rear badging.
Any feedback?

IMHO, red would look better. BUT, the red ones aren't commercially available. They were fabricated by taking some self adhesive red CF looking plastic and applying it over the black CF. If you search the forum archives, you probably can find out more about it. Seems like a pretty simple DIY project as long as you can obtain the red CF overlay material.

Not correct. They are commercially available now.

The red supercharge badge looks great on Ibis (especially compared to the terrible V6T).

There's a few pics here:

Mine just arrived today from ECS tuning. Plan to put it on this weekend on my black S4. The red should stand out nice.

I never got the whole V6T thing... I figured they must have had an order in for badges before they picked the supercharger and didn't want them to go to waste.

I have both and they both look like some kind of tape. The carbon fiber is 3 dimensional so the image shifts when you move it but I think it is still some kind of tape. Both red and carbon fiber have different Audi part numbers.

Carbon fiber is SCHRIFTZUG 4F0 853 601
Red is AUDIZEICH 4F0 853 601A 2ZZ OE

Woot woot... I just ordered mines in red. Can't wait to put it on my Ibis Weiss S4. Now I need to find the DIY de-badging thread. Only problem is that I don't have a heat gun and my condo's garage doesn't have a power outlet to plug a hairdryer into. Grr... I may simply go to my local tint shop and have them do it for me.

its fairly simple, just take a fishing line and ever so gently put in between the badge and ur car. it mite take alil muscle but being careful, and you will have it all off in 15 mins. then just take some goo gone and apply wax and print out the template to match it up good.yea blow dryer would make it easier i assume but it wasnt so bad without.
