Trunk emblem tint / paint ?

Hi,

I've had my bmw hood / trunk emblems blacked out with some sort of
tint or black paint + varnish combo since i bought the car.
Trunk emblem has started to chip out (there's blue showing allready, picture is older).

If i scrape off rest, what would be easiest / best way to make it black again?

I was looking for lamin-x allready cut to fit covers but shipping gets ridiculous pricey
to finland for 8 dollar sticker.

Would window tint work? or just spray with cars color (sapphire black + varnish)?

Open for ideas,
Thanks!

Check ebay, many vendors selling pre cut stickers with free shipping.

I didn't even think about ebay.
However after searching for a while, all i find are pre cut stickers for
middle blue/white part and not for whole emblem as i would prefer.

Like this


I assume regular window tint wont stick on emblem so it needs to be sticker?
I'll continue searching and maybe i'll find something.

Thanks!

They make film for tinting taillights or headlights. All over eBay.
