    Default I wouldn't **** with that thing....

    If you stick something else on there, it's going become a projectile if the airbag explodes!

    The airbag assistance is rendered useless when you have a disc stuck through the middle of your forehead.

    Yeah agreed with scott. Best solution is to leave it alone... unless of course you don't have airbags

    Default The emblem on the airbag is not replaceable.....

    your best bet would be to find a car with a nice airbag and swap them.

    yeah you might be right because i just tried to remove it with a screw driver and to my disbelief the emblem tore. But i think it's made of some metalic like material. ill probably just take it off and firmly glue the other one on. i know that sounds ghetto but................hey! Cant get too much worse.

    P.S. I also wanted to replace it because i just put on some brand new alpina emblems (hood & Trunk) so i just wanted to make it look uniform.

    Default Most of the stick on emblems

    have a very soft glue on them. Wheels (meant to be replaced)

    I have found some goof off or lighter fluid will clean up the glue and a new emblem can be stick on, just not a carbon fiber emblem....they react with the air bag and it will deploy.
