new prius badge - Toyota Yaris Forums

frownonfun · 10-29-2009, 12:16 AM

anyone seen the new badge for the prius... i think it's kinda cool. pictured below is the rear badge i believe. anybody know if this will fit the yaris? also i read somewhere that it lights up so would it even be possible to remove it?

TinyGiant · 10-29-2009, 12:17 AM

yeah i've noticed those on a ton of the prius around here

THE ONE · 10-29-2009, 12:23 AM

I didn't know they had their badge like that! Very cool!

But... would you use one of those for your Yaris??

I don't know... I think it would be kinda RICE...

but I don't know... just a little opinion...

frownonfun · 10-29-2009, 12:29 AM

it may not be for every colour but i think it would definitely look good on a blazin blue... possibly the bayou blue. idk though i'd have to see it. depends on what all else is going on with the car's exterior.

Good point

Guess it could look good on the blazin blue!

I saw one last week, I think it adds a nice touch. I had no idea that it lighted up, thats cool.

How is a OEM emblem considered RICE

I'll try and verify the badge for you all.

but I know the following:

-front and rear are in the same style as the picture
no more of the grille look (the spaces are all filled in on the front one)

- the front is removable as for the back I'm betting it is studded into the metal

- I will check on the light up but from looking at them up close they aren't light permeable and I don't see any wires. (didn't turn the lights on or off)

Ive noticed those too not only on just the prius. I think thats thier new badge they use on all the new toyota hybrids. Like the camry.

I consider it RICE, because in my opinion using one of those on the Yaris would look like the Honda Civis that use those Honda "OEM" lighted badges...

Did you brag about how we got the s/c kit installed?

frownonfun · 10-29-2009, 01:15 AM

lol no to be honest i don't do business with those clowns anymore. worst service department ever. so i just avoid them altogether when i can. i just needed to see the parts department about getting a pic of the 09 bumper cover without the sport lip.

frownonfun · 10-29-2009, 01:16 AM

and yeah the badge on the prius up at my local dealership didn't look like it'd light up but then while searching for a pic of the badge on google i ran across a few of these...

yaris-me · 10-29-2009, 02:48 AM

Nice, but is it doable?

808_Yaris · 10-29-2009, 05:48 AM

^it should be. someone can even make one if they really wanted to

well excuse me bub... looks lit up to me.

as does this one...

could just be the flash or the lighting or whatever idk.

anyway it doesn't matter if it lights up i wouldn't really want it to anyway i was just wondering if it can removed and put on a yaris.
