I painted my front emblem this past weekend. I painted the toyota logo white, and then took yellow paint and filled in the mesh. The three colors I am using on my car are black, yellow and white to match the theme of the car, the hanshin tigers, a japanese baseball team. I am also working with a vinyl shop to see about getting the netz cup stripes on the side of the car in white. I also have rims that im going to refinish yellow or white, havent decided yet. I am also planning on painting the back logo white, replacing the yaris logo with a white painted vitz one, and removing the toyota badge. Any thoughts ?:iono:

I like it. I think this would look awesome on a Polar White or Blizzard Yaris as well.

Nice job. Also nice to see some one else who likes Yakyu (japanese baseball) I am a fan of the Yomiuri Giants myself.

yomiuri sucks!! aahaha As a tigers fan, I have to say that. I went to 10 games when i was in japan last year and fell in love with the tigers because i lived near osaka. I even went to 2 giants vs tigers games and have to give credit to the giants for having the 2nd best fans in japan

haha, it only took 20 minutes to fill in the mesh part and then a few hours to do the coats of primer, paint and clear coat. I probably spent more time sanding it, than I actually did painting it.

Great job on the badge repainting. The car looks very clean imo. Don't get too carried away with the yellow, just my opinion though.

Definitely grab the wheels marlon posted, and I think that will complete the look and what a great look it will be!
