Engine Emblem - How to replace?
Dealer decided they'd better scratch up my engine cover emblem this week. Rather than taking the fight once more to them, I'd like to inquire (unable to locate prior thread) if the emblem can be replaced or does it go with the cover? Thanks!

The emblem is available separately..IIR..it's about $100 or so. Check realoem.com. It should be available as a separate part. Mine is scratched..from what, I've no idea..but it is.

OR you can use this opportunity to replace the plenum cover with a carbon fiber one and just have it look too cool. I'm not sure if Discovery still sells it or if Beastpower does. Probably not too cheap, though.

Cool. For $30 I do not need to get nasty at the dealer, pointing fingers, plus I get crazy thinking a mechanic was so careless to take the cover off (for the value cover change) and place it upside down (my guess) on a rough surface.

Does this just pop-off with a screw driver? Spellling issues today, blame it on the beer!

I thought that it was just a sticker over the 'chrome' part. Can't you just replace the sticker?
