Where to buy UK chrome Emblems?????

I've been looking everywhere for the UK chrome "EVOLUTION IX" emblem and it is hard to find.

Lancershop doesnt carry it anymore and nobody.

most of them turn out to be a waste of money. Only offering my advice because i purchased one of these when i first got my evo and was really disappointed with the quality and size. not worth it IMO.

Still looking for a better option.

Edit> What I would REALLY LIKE is the uk badge in black. but i settle for the real one and just paint it. But the black UK Badge is very tough ;-)

Is an authentic emblem, and for the right price. It's good as long as you have an 8 or are just going to omit the numeral and just center the "EVOLUTION" part like I did.

The knockoff emblems look nothing like the OEM ones as the sides don't have a bevelled profile.
