silver hood crest w/o red & black?

Does anyone know where I can find a silver hood crest w/o the red and black stripes in it?

or maybe one with black only and no red like in the pic (it's photoshopped).

just all plain silver would be perfect though!

thanks!
I called Ralph last night too and said that it would be illegal to sell any with out the red and black stripes. Apparently, Porsche even sued him several times over similar situations...

he said that I can break the red glass out of it if I'd like to try.
Not quite sure if I'd be willing to do so with a $80 badge.

Yikes, maybe you can find a retro one and refinish it or find a bootleg one somehow.
