I recieved thes within 12 days to Canada.Same quality and size as original sombraros

The rear came with 3M tape preapplied along with alignment pins just like the oem badges have.

Very happy with price($40.00 approx for both)

Just thought I would share because this ws the only place I could find a proper rear badge.

I sprayed these with 2K gloss.

They look great! Is the 2K gloss you used SprayMax 2K clear?

Why not imbed your images? That would save people having to open new tabs.

You've done a great job.

Not a fan of a rear Netz badge, but if you're happy with it, then that's all that matters.

Black base with spraynax 2K clear.

This stuff is just 2 stage paint in a can and works awesomely.

Great wide spray pattern and just right amount of pressure.

I will try and imbed images.Gotten used to thumbnail zoom plus(Firefox)Just hover cursor over any image link and it shows image automatically.

I thought it would be odd/silly to just go front.Besides I really like the look of the emblem design.Not many people see this symbol very often,if ever?


P.S

I am aware that the netz dealership only did the front emblem and left the sombraro on the back....I think?

In that case, why not install the VITZ nameplate?

I was actually thinking of that,painted black of course. left side may be a good location?

I could also remove the RS and place it there?

From what I gather the vitz does,and never did exsist within Canada.

Vitz is just another name for the echo/yaris in Japan?

I tried but this site does not autoresize.Therefore I will not imbed images.

As you can see i tried and the image is way too big.I personally dont resize my original images and leave full high res.

I post to reddit quite alot and use imgur.Reddit has no issue with largr images and resizes accordingly.

My 2007 rebadged Vitz RS. (The RS emblem lost it's red insert shortly before I sold the car).

Yeah, I've used the SprayMax 2K clear on a set of alloys I restored for my Sedona. The stuff has been peeling off. I'm pretty sure that I waited too long to apply it over the metallic laquer. I've read great things about it and will likely try it again.

I used/use PPG acrylic base and clear 15 mins after base.
