Pink emblems - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

protpibe · 03-04-2014, 09:25 PM

Not sure if anyone has posted this yet, but during my weekly Japanparts.com browsing, I came across some replacement pink Subaru logos for the BRZ. I'm not sure if I like them or not, but I know I've seen them discussed on the boards before.

Kinda pricey at $100 a pop CAD

Did mine myself, you'll be spending more than 100 plus shipping and maybe import tax they add on sometimes

this is selling $1.85 each on aliexpress. much cheaper. that is where I got my TRD oil cap only $15 with shipping.

I believe aliexpress is full of cheap, made-in-china products, I dont expect their quality to be too good...I've bought a few items from there myself

You get what you pay for, I made a mistake from buying from them before. Not that hard to do this mod, just a bit time consuming.

Isn't aliexpress and alibaba owned/operated by Yahoo? I don't generally like Yahoo products, but dat Yahoo auctions japan...

Yeah I've seen the DIY methods, but my personal opinion is that it will never look 100% right like a manufactured piece.

I believe this will be a direct replacement. No custom stuff, just remove the old one and put this in.

$100 per end is still way too pricey for myself, but hopefully that link/post helps someone out who has been waiting for them to come out.

I was actually in contact with that company l'aunsport a couple of months ago,to see if these were oem pieces. They stated that the emblems were oem emblems but were taken apart and painted with cherry blossom paint, all you are paying for is the labor, brand new oem emblem from the dealer is about $50 and extra material $10

what's the significance of the pink? just seems like an odd color for a badge imo..
