I've got a pink one.... Go for the Pink one, either that or DIY a green one from the standard badge... IIRC there was a website posted a fair while ago that showed you a "how to" for this.

It's easy to change the colour of your existing badge as well:
1) Carefully take off the grille badge (held on with a sticky foam pad)
2) Use celluose thinners on a cloth and wipe off the paint (don't get too caried away or it will remove the silver stars or i). It will take off the sticky pad as well!
3) Mask off the front of the badge (overspray is horrible) and spray the back of the badge
4) Let it dry, stick some double sided foam pads on the back of the badge
5) Clean up the grill with some meths to get rid of the old sticky pad, and stick on your new coloured badge and admire your handiwork.

The problem with sanding is that if the paper is too coarse it will scratch the plastic. Although fine scratches can be polished out.
Sounds like too much effort, hence the paint thinners!!

So, I did another one and guess what...............someone nicked that one aswell as my passenger foglight ( front ).
Luckily, someone had sent me a metallic green "i" badge and that's been on car for almost a year now.
Looked good in red too......never mind, could've nicked the car i spose.
Si.

After reading that DIY guide I thought I'd have a crack at it with my 'i' badge, opted for the pink nail-polish option! A bit of the silver oval surrounding the i came off as I was removing the badge, only a tiny bit so I thought it best to touch it up with a bit of model paint or something before I covered the whole of the back of the badge in the pink stuff. I'ill go and have a look in the morning for some suitable paint. So far it's looking pretty good if I do say so myself, will chuck a couple of pics up when its finished.
Think I've got a 6 stars badge knocking around somewhere, I may do that in white aswell and then decide which one I like best!

My badge looks as if it's been run over, If anyone has got a spare star badge for a classic give me a PM please.

Colour on it looks great though its just a bit tatty around the edges, not sure how it happened because I didn't do any damage to it when I took it off the grille? Hopefully I'll get a pic of my efforts up tomorrow!

Pink stars definately Oh & if you're a bit more adventurous go for the fog covers in pink as well like me on my MY95 With a bit of nifty cutting, sanding, filling & painting you can come up with quite a good grill from the original MY95 as well
