I went through the same thing. Ended up purchasing a few items that I wasn't able to use. You will need to measure the front one (at least I did) and then conducted a search on eBay. My rear emblem is actually smaller than the factory unit, but you would never know it. The rear is held on with double sided tape, so it didn't matter. The front grill emblem has tabs, so its fitment is critical.

My plasti dipped, rings, front and rear, A8L-4.0T Emblems, to include the trim around the exhaust outlets have held up amazingly...... matches the black optic package perfectly

Tow, did you remove them first, plasti-dipped, then used double sided tape to put them back on?

I just completed changing out the front and rear badges from Chrome to Black. Fairly easy process, fishing line, goo gone, wax and thank you @Zombie5150 for the tip on cheap pry tool kit.
Side emblems from @PartsByTopher LLC next.

Also lowered the car this past week with linear springs from EMD Auto. The ride is very similar to stock and got the stance to what I was looking for.
