where did my Polestar badge go?
 
I have just noticed the Polestar badge has vanished from my tailgate, ok so Polestsr blue against Rebel blue meant it didnt really show up, but does anyone know if I can get a replacement?

You could get a different one like this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1309476425...84.m1555.l2649

Not sure if that's an original but it's the same style that I have for mine (potentially an older version as I had Polestar installed a couple of years back).

Original light blue badges come up from time to time, but command a real premium on eBay.

Depends how fussed you are, as the copies are pretty good.

Having said that, any idea how the old one came off? Have you considered approaching Volvo to see if they'd give you a replacement? After all, not a cheap option in the first place.

not a clue how it came off, just walked up behind it at the weekend and noticed it wasn't there, can feel a list sticky mark where it had been adjacent to the D5 badge. Might give them a call and ask them to send me one and see what they say, otherwise will consider one of those longer ones rather than the square one I had. (luckily not my option as the car was a demo and Polestar'd from date of reg I am told)

The pale blue ones are rare as hens teeth. Also it doesn't show uip that well against rebel blue. Hope your dealer can get you one.

No shortage of Polestar badges on Ebay Polestar

Might even get one and stick it on the car - no-one would ever know whether it is actually fitted or not ;)

If it is sticky backed, it is quite possible it just fell off. It would depend on how carefully it was applied and how properly the surface was prepared. It is worth putting your case to Volvo, IMO.
