has anyone seen an aftermarket trunk garnish with no pin holes in the OEM paint colors. I found a carbon fiber one with no pin holes but I'm not huge into carbon fiber.

Is there a clean way to do this WITHOUT a heat gun or hair dryer? I own neither, and am an apartment dweller. No outlets anywhere near where my car is parked.

I have a few posts on it if you search my user name I think.

Basically dental floss and a small piece of plastic. Goo gone to clean up.

How long would you guys say we have to re-badge before it becomes an issue with the paint fading, etc.?

I removed mine 2 weeks ago after being left outside for 2 years. I can't see any difference after I polished and waxed.

Can someone DIY how to fill the holes after debadging. I dont want to rebadge but have no idea where to start.

Just got done debadging, planning on washing the car, should I worry about covering up the holes?

Did this today for the "FR-S" badge on a '13 sold in late 2014 with 6k mi now. Bought a "lil chizler" tool as mentioned on this thread from a local tint shop. Used a hair dryer on low and finished with goo gone and shop towels. It worked great thank god!

It was a good thing I didn't wait any longer because the FR-S badge was starting to rust and left a couple minuscule drops on the paint. They came out with paint cleaner. No fading, much cleaner, easier to wash with a sponge too!

How did you cover the holes up?

Can a TEQ toyota emblem be replaced for the stocked Scion emblems on the front or rear of the car?
