How much trouble was it? You going to do the Vitz badge on the hood or leave the horns?

no itz badge on the front, because i think the sedan is called something different outside of north america. that and i don't want to spend any extra money on this thing aside from tint, springs, and wheels.

yeah, the sedan is called "Belta" (sp) in japan

looks good though, i took the toyota off the back of mine, but left the Yaris S, so people would know what it was..lol, ill take it off and they will just have to ask if they dont know :)

@fnkngrv: my badges came off super easy, just pulled them back on a hot day(just with fingures) and jsut a little bit of "Goo-Gone" to take the rest of the sticky stuff off

I agree it looks better without the badges, I had done mine a few day ago too.

Although one of the shop guys at the dealer pointed out that the toyota emblem on the rear is the same shape and size as a Lexus one.. now that would throw people for a loop...

haha, please Don'T!!!!! I can see taking a LEXUS and putting JDM Toyota emblems on it (since there IS NO LEXUS IN JAPAN), but putting a Lexus emblem on a Toyota would be like putting a BMW emblem on a Honda (well, not really since BMW/Honda aren't the same company..but you get the idea)

I was all "JDM" back in the day, and I converted my LExus GS300 to a "Toyota Aristo V300 Twin Turbo"....that entailed A TwinTurbo Engine/Transmission, wiring harness, CUSTOM LeftHandDrive steering column, ANd "TOYOTA" "ARISTO" and "V300" emblems :P but..then i realized that I had paid for the Lexus name and was only making myself look funny :P

though, i would like to see it...my TRD sponsor is a Lexus dealership in Dallas, so maybe if it looks ok i will do the same (GUINEA PIG! GUINEA PIG!!)

It is really not hard to do DanDaMan...

I used a heat gun with fishing line. You heat the emblem and use the fishing line to get it off. Don't heat the emblem too much, an heat gun can damage your paint.

The glue takes off easy...I think you could even use a simple hair dryer.

After that I used a solvent that removes the glue on the car.

5 mins...done
