Subaru Emblem on Fr-S?

For some odd reason I was thinking of putting the subaru emblem on the front of my FR-S and putting a Toyota emblem on the back. Question is will the Subie emblem fit? Make my car a real Toyobaru.

I gotta ask, why? That'll ruin everything. That's like a Honda emblem in the front and Acura emblem in the back.. in my personal opinion it's not a good look.

I feel like I read somewhere that the Subaru and Toyota/Scion pins align differently but are the same size... if that is true, then you could do it if you snap off the 2 pins in the back of the Subaru emblem before sticking it on.

Not sure about this, but if so, it would only be the case for the front badge. The rear piece should line up as the trunk fascia is the same for both vehicles.

I'd do just to confuse people.

Would love to put a Toyota badge up front, Subaru in the back and leave the Scion on the steering wheel.

Hehe....

I think Scion to Toyota badge swapping is fine, but Scion to Subaru may be stretching it a bit.. Well I guess theres a dude on here that put a Ferrari badge so what ever floats your boat bro. Just expect mass hate if you post a pic of it here.. It will be:

I don't believe it will work on the front. It might work on the rear.

I used to have a DX 98 hatch with a Type-R badge on the back.
