I took my car to get washed last week where I always to. Up to that point, I had no issues with the emblems getting pulled off by the towels. Of course one of the kids drying it pulled the 'X' off the passenger door. The car wash accepted a claim, but past experience tells me they'll only compensate me with gift cards, which are completely useless to me. I know I could get replacement emblems installed under the 3/36000 warranty, but they're horribly designed and will likely get pulled off again. I got an idea yesterday while recuperating from my second Moderna shot. I see a lot of folks getting the Mach-E logo incorporated into vinyl striping, so why not see if I could have someone that makes custom emblems out of acrylic or billet aluminum fabricate some for me? While stripes are cool on other peoples' cars, they're not for me. I reached out, and so far am instantly getting told it's a trademark infringement to create them, so they're refusing to make them. However, I look and they're making custom Mustang GT logos and such. I get the impression they just don't want to do the work, but wonder what truth there is, if any, to the trademark statement. Are fabricators that make stripes incorporating the logo violating the trademark?
