Default Pre-Collision System Emblem

So the other day something flew on the highway and hit my front L emblem and it cracked. It's still on the car but has a big crack in the middle. No PCS light turned on in the dash and the it works like before.

Anyone know what will it take to replace the PCS emblem ? Just based on some research this seems to be a very expensive fix as I can't use any other emblem.

Here is one on eBay for $250

If you take the plastic trim off in the engine bay above the front grill, you can remove the radar and get access to remove the emblem. Held on by 2 retaining washers and clips in at the bottom.

No calibrating or anything, the emblem is purely cosmetic, and any crack in the emblem has no effect on the PCS or Dynamic Radar Cruise Control.

The one I linked looks mint and even the nubs the retaining washer attaches too is still intact. Most people end up breaking that taking the emblem off.

If you loose or break your retaining washer taking it off here are new ones:

You should be able to save the old ones even if it gets bent taking it off, just bend it back.

I probably have one lying around, actually I have two I think. I'm in NJ as well and can list it on the CL Market Place if you want to take a look.
