Question Trunk Garnish

I may have posted this before, but due to the lack of my ability to decipher what's a dream or not about this car, I can no longer remember whether or not I have.

So, does anyone know where to get a clean hole-less rear trunk garnish like this one?

It's the part where the badge would sit, which is separate from the rest of the trunk.

I understand that it's possible to sand, fill, and paint the garnish, but that's exactly what I'd like to avoid!

Thank you ladies and gents.
Wesley.

I was looking for something like this earlier as well. The only thing I could find, was this one by APR Performance:

The one you linked was a photochop that I did. That car doesn't actually look like that.

What would be interesting is to find a third brake light kit out of another make of car that would fit in an opening cut where the rear Scion badge mounts. That would allow the third brake light that's mounted on top of the luggage shelf in the back window to be removed. It's present location in the back window is not a good design feature.

Did you apply this while it was on the trunk? I did mine as well but if u look closely it's not the prettiest job around the edges. Have anything you can help me with to make it more presentable

you can buy an actual carbon fiber trim that covers that whole area, just search on ebay. seller is in taiwan and sells a TON of FRS carbon stuff. but that would be a good option.
