Help with emblem

[tclatin5]

Can anyone or has anyone seen this before? I have a 2010 Hyundai Genesis fully loaded and the rear emblem is the attached file. I have researched as much as I can but can't find out what on earth the emblem means. I'm new to the Hyundai world as I've always owned Audi's and I must say I'm glad I made the switch, but for the life of me I have no idea what the emblem below the Genesis 4.6 means.

P.S.: Don't point out that my car is dirty!!! LOL It's been raining like crazy here in Puerto Rico

Maybe the original owner stuck it on.

I have never seen it before.

Never seen that one on any model of Genesis.

That came with the car when purchased. I purchased it from the original owner who I happen to know. Just can't figure out what on earth it means. I haven't seen another Genesis with it either.

It doesn't have anything to do with Hyundai or the Genesis. It "might" be a dealer emblem.

Why don't you ask the original owner since you know him?

I just talked to him and he doesn't know either... LOL Must have been something the dealer stuck on it. I might take it to a Hyundai dealer to see if they know.

A hair dryer and some fishing line will make short work of it! In fact, you might not even need the fishing line.
