We offer the Toyota emblems in red, black and blue. It boils down to personal preference.

The Toyota emblem is curved as well to ensure proper contact with the existing Scion emblem. Ours also has the strong 3M adhesive to a clean install.

Here's the backside of the Toyota emblem, showing that 3M adhesive has full contact surface with the existing Scion emblem:


Another photo of the backside with the 3M adhesive partially exposed and with front protective sticker intact for the front side of the emblem:



We will post more upclose photos of the emblem thickness soon. As shown in the photos, the 3M adhesive used is very thin to ensure that the Toyota emblem is sitting to the airbag surface as closely as possible.

As promised, more side photos of the Toyota emblem installed:









It's not a true emblem swap or emblem conversion because the Toyota emblem is an add-on accessory. However, given the minimal amount of work required and that it is easily reversible, this is a very simple accessory for the interior for those who prefer the Toyota emblem/symbol. Again, it's not a complete steering wheel upgrade nor an GT86 airbag conversion but a simple cosmetic/appearance upgrade.


When looking at the emblem's thickness, it is a tad thinner than 3 coins stacked together (includes the convex design - curve)The convex design allows the new Toyota emblem to adhere to the existing Scion emblem, and most importantly, conceal the existing Scion emblem so that it is not visible once the new Toyota emblem is installed.

Sorry, we don't have any plans to offer a Scion emblem/badge to fit the Subaru BRZ.
