MS Refresh Front Badge Replacement Options?

[JaeTheDev]

For the life of me, Im not sure why Tesla decided to leave the chrome badging on the refreshed S's but here we are. Im not a fan of wrapping or dipping the badges, but I might have to seeing I cannot find any replacements for the front badge.

Anyone know of any legit ones, or options?

Thanks ahead!

You could take it off and have it painted to the color of your choice or simply go with a Decal

Thanks for the ideas. Sadly, itll just show the chrome on the sides with a decal. I was thinking of taking it off and painting it, but I wasnt sure how successful Id be at it. Purchasing would have been the best for me, but... its a leprechaun. LOL.

I had no luck finding one, had my detailer remove it and paint it gloss black while he had the car for PPF.

I cant remember the price exactly but remember it being about the same as I would have paid for a replacement but he was also getting plenty of my money on other items,

Looks like the route Im going to go. Thanks for the success story. Glad it worked out.

I used hyperDip as well. Just take off the front emblem and follow the instructions. It came out looking great. you don't need to buy the "Kit". one can of hyperdip is all you need.

yes. I used Shadow Black for a matte black finish. if you want shiny, use piano black... or whatever color you want.

Too bad they don't ship to Canada...

in that case you can just use regular spray paint. you'll just need to get a can of primer and another can of whatever color you want. 1-2 coats of primer + a few coats of color.

Went to Autozone and picked up some Plasti-Dip Luxury Metal Black Sapphire Spray Paint. Apply three coats as of now. Never used the product before but not bad for nooby results!
