All-Metal Hood & Trunk Roundel

Dear G20 Owners,

Hey, my name is g20beam. The reason for me making this post is that recently, I've been trying to find and to purchase an all-metal (Whether it is stainless steel, or aluminum) hood and trunk roundel set for the G20.

What I am looking for is a brushed finish, all-metal roundel that has no colours, but only an outline of the BMW logo. I thought something like this would be very easy to find, but turns out there is nothing like that no matter where I looked online besides an option resembling exactly what I am looking for, made exclusively for BMW motorcycles.

Now my question to you guys is, say if I were to have a manufacturer that can create a mold and also put into production a limited quantity of these, how many of you would be interested?

Additionally, I would also try to make a coloured painted version (Just standard colours, maybe just two options with either black/chrome outer edge) made completely from metal.

I want to know if there is a market for something like this, as well as what everyone thinks of it. Any feedback would be appreciated, and also if you guys think that this idea can fly.

I know that older generations always had metal roundels, but lately all the new generations have cut this out and only resorted to using cheap plastic roundels, which for a luxury car such as a BMW should not even be considered an option in the first place.

I have a few more ideas as to what other design options can come out of this, but so far, something like the two I have listed above is my main focus right now.

Let me know what you guys think!

Curious. Can you link an example?
