UPR 5.0 Emblem Issue

[rj67]

Anyone have an issue with the red dot in the UPR 5.0 emblems hazing? I installed these last February.
Mine look like this on both sides. Looks like they use an epoxy or something on the dot.
They are developing a rough texture and don't look so hot.
I tried to contact UPR a couple weeks ago (sent pictures also) and got no reply. Don't know if I got a couple duds or if this an issue with their product.

Hard to tell is the white the color rubbing off or like wax/gunk jammed in there?

They're just stickers at the end of the day. Zombie sells them for $5 bucks for a 2 pairs here http://zombieguardian.tictail.com/product/orange-50-decimal-point-stickers

I put them over dipped badges and they look perfectly OEM

It's not wax. I think the coating they used wasn't applied right or something of that nature. Those stickers look like they might work nice. I'm going to have to try those or get new emblems. Disappointed with UPR's customer service.

Haven't tried a PM. I expected an e-mail would get a reply. I have used many vendors that frequent Mustang6G and never had an issue resolving any problems.

I have the same exact issue. Somewhat less severe, but noticeable.

Sounds like they might have an issue. My other one looks worse! Started to notice a slight hazing and it progressively got worse. They have only been on my car since late February. I sent a PM to UPRSteve earlier today. No reply yet. Not looking very promising to get this fixed. My e-mail to them was sent Oct. 3rd, no reply. My first post stated I contacted UPR a couple weeks ago. Didn't realize it was it was that long ago until I checked my sent folder!

If its just the red part just try to vinyl stickers. It's only $4.95 really (and 2 sets). They worked pretty nicely for me and my badges are dipped black; stuck really well and still there.

Big thanks to UPRSteve. After a few PM's, an e-mail and phone call he is taking care of me.

Yup, my dot basically turned white. I thought it was wax for a second too, but it's clearly faded.

I think I'm gonna grab some of ford's official black badges.

Not necessarily cheap though. Hopefully they'll hold up.
