In agree that the 2003 emblem is not the most durable - the silver paint seems to wear off unusually quick - mine has done the same thing. There is a paint from Duplicolor that matches the factory silver on the emblem rather well and I have touched mine up to where they look like new again. I have the paint details at home and if you'd like to go that route, PM me and I'll get the details to you.
Otherwise, I am considering just taking the '03 emblems off and putting on a set of either black factory emblems (which I have not had any problems with) or I have a set of chrome plated emblems coming in the mail now that I will put on the car.

Yes, and pieces have cracked off as well. Car is stored outside under a cover. Understand the hood emblems have holes for alignment, and the trunk emblem helps with closing the trunk, otherwise I would have removed them (or what's left of them). The 03 price hike doesn't help any....
The billet ones look nice. How much and where?

Those billet ones do look great. If you don't mind, details please.

Since I have delt with them before I will most likely be the one to place the order so let me know who is interested in getting some.
All I can say is these are a work of ART, and the absolute BEST looking emblems I have ever seen.
