+1 I just ordered matte black "530i" from Bimmian on Saturday, but I THINK you also could get custom letters as well. Worth a visit to their site.

EDIT: Never mind, just checked, and the custom letters only come in chrome. http://www.bimmian.com/LTR/60 My bad.

this maybe the only way to gooo

Just sand 'em down and spray away. Since they're on the back of the car at least they won't be exposed to as much debris, direct water spray, wind, etc. that might cause chipping. Worth a go I suppose.

I think that's the way to do it, I am not a fan of the font style for the custom badging. I prefer the OEM BMW style.

We also just got these in matte black which is a hot look if you have matte front grills.

Now I'm thinking if I should have ordered black gloss ones . But since I have matte black front grilles, matte black shadowline trim, and matte black summer wheels, I went for... well, matte black letters too .

The price was surprisingly cheap, only 20$. So because of that I chose their "untrusted" 5$ airmail shipping instead of FedEx, which would have been 70$!!!
