I'd be down to do this, but I think the steering wheel would be too much of a mission just for a badge... Unless someone figures out a better solution.

People that own USDM Integra's do this all day throwing Honda badges on.
I myself wouldn't do this unless i got the badges for free or super cheap. And IMO i don't care what people do with the car. They payed for it they own it its there car so do what ever with it. Dose it suck that its badge under the scion name yes. But i don't see what the bid deal would be in changing it to Toyota badges? |

Yes, on the vendor thread that has the replacement Toyota badges they mention the front and back have alignment holes. The front one has clips but the back is held on just by tape. Doesn't say where the holes are though on the badge. I'm guessing top/bottom center, but its a pure guess. I haven't looked to see yet.

This. When I had my NSX, I put Honda badges on it as well... Acura meant and represented absolutely nothing to me. Honda had a racing heritage behind it, and, at the time, was in Formula 1 to prove it. I'm not much when it comes to brands designed specifically for us "dumb Americans." When a car is marketed as something EVERYWHERE ELSE in the world, I don't get the point of marketing it as something different here. So yeah, if/when I get an FR-S, it will get Toyota badges and the FR-S badge is coming off. And I'm fine with that.

Well since everyone will be switching to Toyota badges and possibly Subaru. I will go the Lexus badge route and be unique. We all know Lexus/Toyota/Scion are the same so i'll be a happy camper
jk Japan has had Lexus for awhile now |
