Plus the Scion front badge and the one on my radio. Bought the car used, the rear bumper applique was on it. Almost forgot, I got stock wheels, so there's 4 more. Don't see the point in changing. IMO, a waste of time and money.

The Bat-a-rang wouldn't look right on Argento and I'll take the sombrero full of chips and guac!

The badginsanity is ridiculous!

(I was totally joking about our cars become rare because they are Scion, but if it is a good way to mess with you, I can keep it up!)

Gonna wait to see if they make a new FR-S with at least 20 more hp. If so, i'm swapping to the above once I buy it in 2-3yrs^^^


Kinda wish i had gotten a BRZ now, but i just love the damn Toyota fangs!~

Sky says beware, she'll be stealing the caps on Toyota wheels when they release the new Toyota FR-S instead of waiting to buy them for almost $200 from a jdm import. hehe

Will you keep your scion badges?

I will leave mine as is. JMO, but badge swaps/blackout kits make little sense to me. Black out kits often look dull/cheap and swapping to the same badges as a modern day Corolla or Camry isn't really inspiring or much of an homage. The rare exceptions are things like the pink i badges on WRX/STIs or the TOYOTA lettering on a Tacoma or 4Runner. The Trueno badge above would look great if it didn't have the oval behind it. A full 80s theme FR-S with the old TOYOTA or TRUENO lettering in the grille would look cool.

Since we're talking old-school retro badges, how about a retro engine cover that just says "FA20" or better yet, if wanting to stay consistent with Toyota engine code, "4U-GSE?"

Well that would tie in nicely with the swastikas on the fender garnish!

Scion badges look so much better than the Toyota's "uterus" badge that it would be insane to switch them... unless you're a gynecologist!!!!

Also not saying the 86 emblem actually is on but once you see it you never can unsee it. The lightening bolts however are spot on and only need a bit of history knowledge to say "wait a second here...".
To be clear I am not saying there is some big hidden meaning or conspiracy or anything like that simply that they were some weird design choices.
