Default Black Painted Z06 Emblems?

Does anyone have any pics of this? Where some black is integrated or fully taken over the polished/chome color? Please no bashing just trying to get an idea... preferably on silver

If you want to paint your own a good way to do it is put chapstick on the raised letters. That way when the paint dries you can just wipe off the chapstick on the letters.

I think a satin or "trim" black would look the best.

Has anyone merely changed the "Z" from red to another color (i.e. blue)?

I asked this once before and never found anything. I was thinking about making everything black, while keeping he Z red.... or possibly leaving the oval around the Z silver. Someone needs to produce these.
