I lost both symbols in the rear wheels, image below, with very little milleage between the two in the two rear wheels, wonder why this could happen...

two weeks ago I noticed one was gone, today the other side is gone too... wtf

Most likely they were nicked...
There be marks left on the alloy wheels if someone had removed them from the wheels as I'd doubt if anyone stealing them would bother about damaging the alloys.

Certainly in Northern UK climate, these centre trims do not last very long before looking nasty, I replaced all of them on my daughter's late 2009 Ibiza when it was about 6 years old, I bought mine via eBay, from a SEAT dealership that was being closed down.

I just found it weird they are both gone almost at the same time.
Planned obsolescence at its best.
