iND Painted Front M3 Emblem Chipping Off

This past November I ordered a front grille set from iND; grilles in gloss black, surrounds painted BSM, and the front M3 badge painted gloss black. 2 months of having the front grilles installed on the vehicle the BSM painted surrounds are absolutely perfect, but the gloss black paint on the M3 badge is coming off..



Anyone else's painted front M3 badge chipping away too??

Unsure how to going about fixing this. I may just let chip away completely and vinyl wrap in gloss black.

If the paintwork is failing, I would reach out to IND and let them know. I would not try to fix it until you have touched base.

Their customer service is 2nd to none & I would be very surprised if they just brushed it off.

I had an issue with the paint on my X5 roundel a few years back and they sent me a new one without hassle. I’m sure they’ll do something to make it right.

Yea, it's currently getting situated with iND right now and it seems they will likely repaint the M3 emblem. I shipped them the driver's side grill and they just took delivery last Friday.

So i'm standing by on their next action..
