i decided it was not worth the concern as well. stuff happens. it sucks when it is on such an expensive part though.
i can live with it until the car becomes a show car or the bags deploy and it gets replaced anyway.Steering wheel logo deteriorating?

At my old dealership, tech's were hestitant to replace the logo by removing the small metal tabs that hold it in place due to the airbag material so close to where the metal prongs are bent into place. That's usually why they just replaced the whole airbag assembly-liability if a careless tool puts a small nick in the airbag material. The old Saleen logo was junk! An adhesive was placed on the S logo and would start to lift and pell off in just a few months. Saleen cost Ford a lot of money because the regluing just didn't work, and the owners in turn got new airbags. Saleen refused to pay for the $6-800.00 in parts and labor. I've never seen the deterioration of the pony logo you guys are talking about but I don't doubt it. My advice is if you o decide to replace the logo yourself, be very very careful when prying off the pony logo, or just have a reputable dealer do it.
Don't worry, it will happen soon on your 2008. I garaged my 07 GT over this winter and the deterioration has gotten worse just sitting in the garage (protected from UV/IR radiation).

Mine has it, too...
I think it was like that on my '06 convert. when I bought the car with 28, 400 miles. It has 34, 400 on it now, and it's still there, but I just don't worry about it.
