I have been looking for that for a long time because I want to change the color of the bowtie. I haven't seen anything on the market, you may have to go to the dealership.

I would assume that it is not a part you can purchase. It must be part of the air bag.

I have the same problem. (Dented Bow Tie emblem on my steering wheel) I was waiting to run into the DENT REMOVER guy. I'll let you know if he was able to fix it.

See if you can pry it off. If you can go to billetbadges.com and order a custom badge to replace it. You can design it however you want and it'll be maybe 60 or 70 bucks for a completely custom badge.

I know he's made steering wheel badges before:)

Yeah I think it's a cool idea too (I don't take credit for it, just saw it before). If I had one to replace I'd do it in a heartbeat. A guy I know has all his Ford emblems replaced with his nickname and it looks awesome. They're quality billet emblems too. I'm gettin some for the exterior of my truck to replace the dmax badges soon I think.
