Black/tonal badge options?

[Yangl123]

Anyone know if there's options for KIA hood emblem, but rather than the white lettering it is tonal? Like shades of dark grey? This is not an OEM option, but curious if anyone has come across aftermarket emblems that look like this. I made a mock-up in case the description was unclear:

Murdered out, Batman badges - I like it! Been thinking of trying to go that route on mine. On a side note, the 2020 Subaru Outback has an Onyx appearance package that does this. Never thought an Outback could look tough. Well. Sorta.

No... I included a mock up in OP - I mean a logo that is same design as OEM that says KIA, but in a dark tonal colorway. Just wanted to see if anyone has seen something like this - I have not come across one yet.

Any window tinting place could tint them for you. The place that did my windows did them for me until I got replacement badging. Ended up looking a lot like the black chrome/gunmetal color.

Nice, very cool. Do you have any pics?

I think my favorite KIA badge was on the K900 they did a while back ago.

I think an overlay for the OE one that's color matched would be awesome.

Your attachment just looks like a solid black ellipse to me.

You may want to adjust your monitor...

(I'm serious - your brightness and contrast settings may be out of wack).

Lol! You're right. I turned brightness up all the way and dog my carts, there KIA is: very faint, but I can see it. Now that I know it's there, I can dial back on the brightness and still see it. Weird.

Thanks. Strangely (but not unexpectedly) my "Advanced Display Settings" screen does not look like that; and I have no "Customize Your Display" or "Color Calibration" tools. Zip.

Time to upgrade from XP...

If you're running a different OS, you'll need to do something slightly different. And of course, if you're browsing on a phone...

Windows 10. Very high quality laptop less than four months old. I find it very strange that the tools on that page @Manaz linked to do not show up on my 'puter. Maybe the builders decided that their settings are "perfect" and if any messing with them is to be done, they will do it? Fine with me. I am the last one on the planet who wants to tinker with his 'puter.

Here's what I see:

Drat, my tirade about Windows XP curtailed in its infancy.

Where can I find this one?

They aren't "sold", this was custom made by the shop that built that K900. I tried super hard to find who sold those, and came across an article that said the badge was a one off, custom made one.

It could probably be done at a paint shop, or a custom vinyl sticker.
