I only know of the LEGACY badge in black chrome from Japan. But I reckon you can easily just make your own! Just sand down a LIBERTY badge, apply charcoal/black chrome paint.

I sprayed a "2.0 GT" badge black and have it on my car. Just used black auto paint spray that you get from autobahns and the like...
I didn't even sand back the plastic chrome, just put on a few coats and it looks sweet.

Adhar, post a picture ! 
Also, any tips for taking the liberty badge off and sticking back on. Just use fishing line or something id assume, but what would u use to put it back on?

Sorry Laps i've only just seen this post now. With me being lazy i couldn't be bothered going outside to take a photo especially so here's a couple of shots of my car from a while back where you can kinda see the badge. Sorry the pics are crap but they'll have to do
The 'Liberty' badge peeled off nicely after i left the car parked in the sun for a bit. Then a bit of cut/polish to clean it up and its fine. The 2.0 GT badge i got from Japanparts came with the tape already on it. It also came in the foam die-cut piece to help line it up when putting the badge on the car.

This may work for you all in Oz assuming you have somewhere that sells 3M style PlastiDip. Below is the link I used as a guide to paint mine...
Very similar to the 2.0GT one posted except when you no longer want it you can simply take a toothpick or pointed metal pick and peel it off.

Hope this helps.
