Did that just rub off or is it permanently damaged?

It would be even worse if you had huge scratches on your car, on a previous black gti I got a couple pretty noticeable scratches on one side from a car wash... car washes are tempting but I've learned to stay away.

I pay the extra money for a hand wash. But then usually I'm too cheap for that so I just wash it myself. lol. It's the safest way.

I never put my car through those so called" Touchless " washes. Consider yourself lucky because it could've been worse. The emblem doesn't cost much. I have always hand washed my car.
