Question 2006 Cayenne - Newbie

Just picked up my first Porsche -- brand new "06" Cayenne Tiptronic that was sitting on the lot waiting to be scooped up (only 1800 miles). Absolutely mint condition, except for one small item... the Porsche crest/emblem on the hood is faded.

2 questions:

1) Any recommendations for online vendors where I can purchase a replacement crest/emblem? The dealership mentioned they could run $150 which I expected from them but figured I could find cheaper.

2) What the best way to remove/replace the crest once I do get the replacement? Certainly don't want to damage the new addition.

I appreciate any help you all have and look forward to reading all the posts in the Cayenne Community.

Just threw a few up in the photo gallery. I just ordered the roof transport system (has come in handy for other cars Ive had) and plan on adding over time to enhance. I had to take it home with me when I got into it.

If you all have any suggestions on "no brainer" additions/enhancements, I'm all ears (or eyes for that matter).

Up until a few weeks ago, it only had 19 miles... the dealership owner put some miles on it. Its still listed on Porsche's website under pre-owned (although never was) for $46,900. They gave it away... $34,700... had to pick it up.
