If the badge lights are incorporated into the badges then you'll have loose end wires there for no reason. If not, you still have the light up dashboard and plaque that say "SCION." It's a Scion-exclusive limited edition and paint. I'd let Scion be.

Even if I had a standard FR-S I still prob wouldn't rebadge it because 1) interior badges would mismatch exterior unless you do it right and buy a $1k airbag, 2) I don't want to explain branding to people, and 3) seems like everyone is rebadging. Scion is the black sheep brand of the globe and I like the logo's design, aesthetically. Because of that, I consider rebadging my BRZ to Scion sometimes (I really wanted a Scion back in college when the brand was new). But 1) I don't want to explain branding to people (already a hassle explaining why my Subaru is not turbo AWD) and 2) like Ignition Silver only looks right with a Scion badge, WRB only looks right with a Subaru badge, especially with this badge being blue with tiny black checkers which match my color scheme.
