They won't care. Remove and replace. NOT RESPONSIBLE is the sign they will direct you to.

he's right. I've worked in a gas station where they had a car wash and if it wasn't something you noticed when you got out after the wash then your on your own. Good luck proving that the car wash did this to your emblems and if it was the wash, why isn't the area around the emblems messed up too. Just something that happens with time bud

Remove and replace with new ones since they are cheap. Get what you pay for.

OOOOORRRRRR.....you can remove them, clean and prep them, paint and clear them, probably cost the same and you wouldn't have to wait for them to come in, you could have it done tonight if you really wanted to

good eye. didnt even look at all the pics. i just noticed there on random non sports cars


another suggestion is to plasti-dip them too. a can is around $8 but then u dont have to worry about taking off the emblem and worrying about cleaning the adhesive too

Adds character. Seriously though, they're aftermarket and the car wash isn't responsible.
