Nice! You're right!! Now.. lets hope the key hole isn't there too. LOL

some cars the name looks ok on the back in big letters but this car is so small anything big back there is just overpowering

do you hear us scion we don't want that ugly 3rd light

I think they put it on there when they read about everyone wanting to de-badge their cars.

Now they're like: "De-badge this, suckers!"

If you pull hard enough it'll come off. True story.
Yes, I do mean the plastic piece on the trunk you perverts!

Put's himself in a Nuke Bunker

*....I think... I like the 3rd light with the Scion lettering... :X*

but I think it should be an option. that and I don't see it making it to the actual production model.

sure gives a love or hate flare to the concept though

Imo...that's more obnoxious than the Scion logo. It's not as "clean". Font is to fat and gaudy...

I'd have to agree. FR-S is just too short of a word to display on the back without making it look too big.

This is why it works with other cars. They can stretch the name across the back so they aren't as big.

You can only do so much with 3 letters....

Then add an "I" to make it the "Fris." Eg. Toyota Fris, Scion Fris.
