Rebadged mine (335 and 128) with gloss black...makes people notice it's different and so forth, but for me it was just because I liked the look better than the chrome. Same reason I went with black grilles on the 128 and body-color on the 335.

I put blue painter's tape along all 4 edges of the set of numbers, then marked where each number's edges were on the top and bottom tape strips. I then removed the numbers with dental floss and cleaned up the adhesive with a mild solvent. Then I did the black numbers one at a time, lining them up with the marks on the tape, pressing them on hard to be sure the adhesive would stick properly. Removed the tape and it was all done.
