Carban, thanks for posting those. Do the holes line up exactly with the Scion holes in the front and the back?

Could you send me a link to where you bought them? I just got my FR-S yesterday and am new to all of this!

The holes line up perfectly and you can get them through Carson Toyota.

I took off the FR-S badge and went down to Autozone and got a smal bottle of Goo Gone for $3.25 with tax.
Worked like a charm!

I hate life right now. Well not really, but /sigh trying to remove the badge from this thing is just a nightmare for noob like myself. So I tried hair dryer. Too weak, then I used Heatgun, and the paint buckles before the adhesive is even loose enough. Btw dental tap sucks, just breaks and breaks. Im giong to try fishing line tomorrow. I just dont want to damage my paint anymore (

Seriously, don't use floss for the scion badges. It works fine to remove the FR-S logo, but not the Scion badges. If you want an amazing tool for less than a nickle use a zip tie. Heat up the area with a hair dryer, feed the zip tie under the badge carefully, slice through some of the adhesive, and gently pull it toward you. You can have the badge off in less than a minute with no paint damage.

Yep--works extremely well. Just use the slender end. It's better than sawing at your paint for two hours with fishing line.

I thought the front badge had clips on it. Is that not the case?
