    Brushed Metal Audi badges?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Do these exist? Im looking for something that would match the mirrors or grille surround.

    If not has anyone painted the audi badges to look like this?

    OR.. is it possible to scuff the chrome ones into looking brushed?

    You can try something like autodip. They have metal effects, but they require black base coats.

    They are North of the border too!

    There options are not really that close. The silver they have isn't similar to the trim

    This is one of the situations where plastidip actually shines. Buy a can of matte clear dip and coat the emblems. I promise you wont be disappointed. It gives you a finish almost identical to the RS trim

    After 3 years of use:



    You can probably lay it on smoother than this too, but you can see some wear from the elements
