Whiteout (37J) TRD fins installed

Thanks to the DIY instructions in this thread I was able to remove and install with ease. The most annoying part was removing and cleaning up the factory double-sided tape/glue before putting on the new fins.

Bumping an old thread.

Does anyone have a pic of how big the 2 holes are behind the 86 badge ? I want to delete that.

It's a hole and a sloted hole...picture of drivers side (slot to the front of car, passenger side is opposite with slot to the back):

Thanks for this pic. I've been wanting to remove that emblem since I took delivery of mine, and unfortunately my suspicions are confirmed. If someone were to make a pre-painted, smoothened out panel, I'd pay money for that. Not a lot, but some...

I was going to dip mine in carbon fiber but I need smooth. I don't feel like paying for the carbon ones
