Default Any solution for worn-out handle emblem?

This is driving me slowly crazy.
Please see the picture below. It's '08 IS250.
What would be the best solution to cover this up nicely?
My local Lexus service center(I live in Seoul, Korea) won't help me.
They say they need to replace the airbag cover itself, which is too much of a hassle.
I'm looking for maybe a car paint or some sort of a sticker that can cover this up.
Any suggestions would be very much appreciated!

If you can get the emblem off the airbag cover with a hair dryer (on "Low", and be be careful - there's pyrotechnic technology under there) and dental floss, you can get it re-chromed
