It's ruined because there's no replacement part for just the roundel. You have to get a new airbag if it's damaged. Also I thought the tabs on the emblem are hooked so that it holds onto the airbag. If you pull it off doesn't it bend the hooks straight making it hard to secure? This was the case for the e46.
