Default peeling decal

I've got the 18'' TRD wheels and one of the emblems is coming off. This seems kind crappy considering the cost. I've only had the car for 3 weeks. Has anyone else had this problem? Any suggestions on a solution?

Had the same problem and the reason why mine came off is that I did not clean the surface very well. So I ended up removing the whole thing. it would leave some sticky residue from the decal what you do is get some froam with a scrubber that is safe for clearcoat. 97 cents at Walmart. or your used bounce from the dryer. it is safe enough not to scratch your clearcoat rub some cooking oil on the surface where you removed the decal let it sit for 30 secs. then scrub very gently. Coz once you see those decals coming off theyre gone. Dont buy them from ebay most of my friends got it there and they had the same prob.

Take that sh!!t back to toyota and tell them about it and let them replace it.......That is if you bought them from toyota ............I think that's what I'm understanding from this thread

Yeah, they came on the car. It's a $2000 option!
