Scratch/crack on steering wheel Subaru emblem

When I got in my car this morning there was a new or yet undiscovered scratch in the emblem that isn't very deep at all but catches light well. Looking for suggestions on what to do fill in, replace, I'm not sure? It's hard to see in the picture but it goes through 3/4 of the emblem. Maybe just ride it out and go aftermarket down the line?

Try to buy from someone who switched to Toyota emblems? You can probably get one for $10 or so if the scratch is bothering you.

There's not going to be many people who swapped out their Subaru badge for Toyota ones...

Actually 1 reason I get the BRZ is because I don't need to spent all that extra dough to convert the damn thing into a Toyota.

Hahaha I've seen a few people who did that swap and didn't want Subaru badges. To each his own!
