If you say that, then you can't call the $600 mod to replace it with the 86 logo "dumb".

This happens when you try to make the car something it is not.

It will never be a Toyota.

It is a Subaru made by Subaru employees at a Subaru factory.

In your logic, then all Apple products are Chinese and actually 'Foxconn' products since they're all made at a Foxconn factory.

Point being, Subaru would have never designed and engineered this car. Tada-san himself had to fight to get a test car made to convince the Subaru guys to even think about working with him on it.

In my eyes, it's a Toyota that uses Subaru parts.

Please open your eyes....

All the parts have Subaru stamped on them.

... and that's why the paint sucks, the interior rattles and moisture builds up in the tail lamps!

Interesting, I used Goof Off to get mine off and everything worked perfectly.

FLIPs_FR-S · 08-01-2012, 10:32 PM

Can hardly tell. But you should of tried it in a door jam or trunk jam first. No one will notice unless they have seen this.

Razz · 08-01-2012, 10:38 PM

Use what the body shops use.

Diluted acetone.

Otherwise buff it out with polish.
