Dirty Looking ///M

I replaced this faded badge, with OEM. After several car washes- the badge colors now looks awfully “muddy”. Any idea on how to clean this up, short of another replacement?

I think you are correct. After the sixth car wash, the clear film over the tricolor started to peel away. By the ninth wash, I began noticing the discoloring. This was the best I can do, after using Goo Gone. It still looks unsatisfying, for something this new.

New, all-black badges ordered!
