"BMW" missing on my calipers?

I have a 2017 340i Xdrive Msport. Anyone have any idea why my front gray calipers don't say "BMW" like I've seen in many other?

I've seen the "BMW" wear off. Road salt, solvents from car wash, could be anything that took it off. See photo for decal guy who does great work fast and inexpensive. He'll do a whole sheet so you have spares. Any size, color, etc. clean area with Formula409 first then wipe down with isopropyl alcohol. Then apply decal.

Or paint them any color you want with G2USA Caliper Paint. Amazing stuff and you can brush it on right on the car. Dries to a sprayed on finish. See photo. Many colors and custom colors too.

Why make a whole new thread just for this kind of question?

Sorry I haven't been back here in years. I wasn't sure where I should post it.
