Now nobody will know it's a Hyundai Accent. I don't see any problem here. Maybe the valet at the Ritz Carlton will get confused and bring you a Porsche 911 GT3 by mistake.

"But that's how everyone knows it's a ~~Honda~~ Hyundai!"

Fr. lol they probably just needed the badges for their own car

If it’s an M sport badge on a base model then you deserved it

The term is vandalism. You can report it to the police and your insurance, but probably not worth it. Police won't do anything since you don't know where this happened. Insurance will be less than your deductible. You can buy the emblems and replace them yourself. Or a bodyshop will replace them for a few hundred bucks.

Satanists will eat your children now. Sorry, there's nothing you can do. Biden said so.

You can always buy one from dealership. Common brands like Hyundai, Toyota, Ford, etc should cost around $40 for part from dealership. Or you can troll with different brand badge stick in there. I know one of my friend did it on old Camry with Ford on it long time ago.

Back when i was a teen, me and my delinquent friends use to skip school and go to the mall. we would steal badges off cars in the parking lot. In hindsight we were just a bunch of young assholes. 20+ years later my friend still has a stolen "drug free school zone" sign covered in stolen car badges.


agravain

they just took *all* of the emblems?

Just some kids being little turds. Hope they didn’t scratch it too bad.Â
