OK which one of you hoodlums stole my grille badge?

I noticed it missing when I came out of work last week.

Then today I stopped by the dealership to find out what they'll charge for a replacement....

$42 plus tax ?!?! yikes!

Looks like I'll have to steal one from someone else...

no- I wouldn't do that- more likely to just slap a sticker of some kind in there, got plenty of those around.

Are you CERTAIN that it didn't simply fall off on one of those washboard roads out there in the Arizona desert??

It disappeared the week before or I would have figured that was the case.

Not to say it might not have been on "those washboards" somewhere else...

Actually I think Roo might be right, the little bit of adhesive left behind was pretty much full of dust and flaked right off, probably the 100,000 miles of dirt driving rattled it off in the desert somewhere
