Can't say the same about the faux carbon fiber bowtie/horn cover though.

First mod I did when I picked up my 2023 GTS 300 SS was to swap out the front Piaggio badge to an all black emblem. Looks fantastic.

there's also a LOT of different ones available at v-emblem (dot) de.
shipping took about a week to get to me on the east coast from germany. they do the backer plate with thick sticker option, so they aren't enamel but it's an aesthetic thing and i'm likely to change things out as the mood strikes. |

The 2 weeks plus it takes to get anything from ali doesnt work for the majority of the world. You being so close to their center of operations yields different results.
