Tel, Sammy,
Did you guys buy new badges to be dipped, or purchase new please?
If you can share costs of dipping (here or PM) would be appreciated.
Thanx, Paul

Haha I was saying to Tel I honestly can't remember the price as I had a bunch of other little things done at the same time, but I think it was around £200

They took off the existing badges and coated them and put them back on :)

So odd the factory doesn't offer it, I love it!
I had my front S done in a sort of matte grey so that it still stands out against the black grille

That looks very nice PaulMc, and for me that's because of the color of your car.

Not shure if it would look as good on my IRR though..?

Must admit I am not a fan of black this and black that, I like the badges as they are but if I was to change them I would have them in gold like on my other car which is a silvery green. I think gold would look nice with IRR, I like a bit of bling, must be my Essex upbringing. 😎
