If the emblem representing the manufacturer's crest has become dull and unrecognizable due to sun exposure, you can replace it. This is a very simple operation since the emblem is glued to the rear hatch with double-sided adhesive. You need to carefully detach it, noting that it has two alignment pins.

When prying off the emblem, do so without tilting it too much, or the pins may break. It is recommended to heat the emblem with a hairdryer to loosen the adhesive.

Then, clean the surface thoroughly and attach the new emblem.
