Black badges for front and sides? Are these easy to change? They are self adhesive?
Apologies for not replying back in Sep '21, CH_M3f80 - am just now seeing your post. See spta97's link in post 21 for how I resolved.

How is the paint holding up?
Remarkably well despite 2 yrs of washing, and haven't had to touch-up either. Would've preferred they came blacked-out from the factory like the F95/96, but an easy and inexpensive DIY for those who can't stand the shiny chrome lettering.

Thanks Max. Im looking for slight appearance mods to do (for some reason) and I’ve had my sights on eliminating shiny chrome.

I can’t seem to bring myself to remove the competition badge on the back but I always hated how obnoxious it is. Blacking it out would improve the looks IMO. I would also like to do the front and sides as you did.

I guess it doesn’t hurt to try your method before spending money on painted badges.
