The op is asking for honest opinions, if the brz was available and he got one but wants the Toyota emblems to make it feel more gt86 then why not? It's no different than adding parts that say 86 on ours like oil caps, license plates etc etc. I say go for whatever you like just keep the Subaru ones in case you don't like it. Mods should close this thread before the flames continue in this thread. This isn't how our forum should be to new members.

Op, I kept my badges incase I ever changed my mind but I just like the clean look of it off. If you want to add Toyota GT-86 go for it. If you don't like it switch them back, if you are talking about the centers, then I don't know what to tell ya because idl if they line up or if you want to have to keep telling people it's a brz86 not a scion since all scion guys are switching to Toyota badges

Perhaps you could find a Kia or Ford emblem that would fit? They're both ovals and may have something available like what you're looking for.

(Or for fun you could just use a Ford emblem and tell people it is a 2013 Probe!) HAHA

Really, no one makes CF Subie badges? You should find the company that does the BMW roundels in CF and see if they'd take on a new project! I think that'd be pretty cool, actually.

EDIT: K2 Gear in Japan used to, it seems. I couldn't find them still for sale. Check out this DIY guide where a guy made his own!

Although it's a strange idea to rebadge the BRZ as a Toyota, I don't see how it's comparable to badging it a Ferrari or Kia. It's not as if Toyota is some outside marque that piggy-backing off Subaru. Let's open the history books and rediscover who spawned, designed and had ultimate discretionary power throughout this car's inception.
