The only thing I just noticed after looking again is the Quattro emblem being all black. It looks like a black underline. If you can restore the chrome letters would be nice or add a badge similar to this pic. Just pick'n the brain.

I actually tried to do them red but it would not stick to the letters. Everytime I would peel it off, the whole thing would come off. Yeah I might take the black out and leave it chrome. Also, I'll be removing the chrome lip on the bottom of the trunk this weekend. Not sure why I have that piece on there and seems like most people don't have that.

BTW, where did you find those red Quattro badges?

I see, must not be enough of a lip to separate. Those emblems are listed on Ebay and many other versions.

Definitely revert the all black quattro to the original. As bpd said it looks like a black line.

Idk if I like the red T on white. I think it looks better on the darker cars IMHO.

@F10_535i You have chrome on the bottom of the trunk because you have chrome trim all around. The black optics cars don't have the trim piece.

Hey

How about a gloss white quattro badge on the front of the car?

You can buy them on ebay https://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/emerald_2...p2047675.l2559

Default Plastidip Smoke on Chrome Badging


Rear Emblem post dip.

Front grille emblem post dip

Step away view of rear

Step away view of front. I wanted a similar shade of silver to the wheels. I think it looks pretty close.
