I've got the Arrow carbon pipes on my S4R. They have the yellow and blue logo like in this pic:



Due to a new colour scheme on the bike, I'd like to have this label:



The thing appears to be riveted on there, so I don't know about removing it. Would painting carefully with Testor's or something deal with the heat alright?

I painted out the same type of plates on my Leo Vince carbon cans.  I just used regular matt tremclad because I had it handy.  It's held up for over a year no problems at all.

When I got my Arrows I expected to get the blue/yellow badge because that's all I ever saw.  I was stoked when mine came with the badge you wanted, as I'd never seen that color and it matched my bike.  I have a black/silver S4Rs, so it was perfect. 

I don't know for sure, but with the badge being riveted I think the easiest solution would be to see if you could purchase another plate from Arrow.  If you provide proof of your purchase I'd imagine they would be willing to sell you one.  Hard to imagine a paint job would look nearly as good.

Rivets are generally easy to drill out and redo.  Good luck.

It is called a dark badge.  Search arrow and dark and you will see a bunch of threads, and the P/N.
I half-heartedly tried to find one to buy, but wasn't that easy.  Emailed Arrow, intraweb searching etc.  If you find a source please let me know. I like the exhaust, but HATE the yellow badge on my black and white S2R.
