Black Reflective Emblems

I have a Silver '97 Limited Edition Celica with black reflective emblems. I recently had it painted and they broke the "Toyota CELICA" emblems when they went to remove them to do the paint job.

I'm having a hard time finding replacements. They are not chrome. The dealership can't find them. Can't find them on ebay or replacement part sites.

Anyone have any idea where I might find replacement emblems? Any help would be much appreciated!

Ah, the ever so elusive "ghost emblem", best of luck finding them new. I took my old ones and used the duplicolor black chrome to try and achieve the same effect. Not as good as OEM, but looks decent enough.

I would likely do what spider listed but if you're interested I do work in a parts department of a Toyota dealer, so I could try to track one down for you, or the part number at least.

Well, if someone does have a good line on them, let me know! All the celicas I've come across in the yards already have the emblems removed....
