Don't think it's possible to change the colour of the existing badge by prising off the cover.

Someone on here swapped the front badge for the monochrome engine badge. But personally I like the green & black badge.

The chrome grille surround can be colour coded by removing it from the grille & painting.
I've painted mine in Black Magic & it looks spot on.
