anyone know where I can get the T badge and the IST badge pretty quick? I need them because me basically stock "IST" is going to be showing on Oct. 3rd... ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT!!! :D

cabeperformance.com and newscionparts.com sell the ist badge. I'm sure you can pick it up at their parts departments too. The T badge (rear) for the ist will be hard to find. I'm sure there's another toyota car's badge that'll fit the rear. Highlander? 4runner? The front badge...you'll have to bondo or puddy it to make it look good (a la tbblizzard)...

If you want the front badge I would say best bet is trying to see if you can import one. It would look way better then most trying to make it work jobs would. Just my $.02. Also the store here on the forum (under construction right now) Has the badge for sale but might take some time to get because I think they are straight from Japan.

call steve from bbist.com his number is 626-215-1515 he always comes down for sd meets.

a la tbblizzard eh? :lol:

T badge for rear you will not find it in the states, no Toyota has a badge that large. Highlander has the largest badge and it's not very big. You can use Highlander's grill badge for your front bumper. With some cutters/razor blade, sand paper, bondo and paint you can mold it to your front grill. It's a perfect fit in place of the Scion emblem. Clip/cut the prongs on the back of the emblem off. Stick some sand paper on a block of wood and sand it to get the back of the emblem flat. Mask off your grill where you around the emblem spot and fill it with bondo, sand, and paint. Apply the Toyota emblem on with some double-sided tape and you're good to go.

:shock: That looks good. I have a question then. I know the bB had a gen 1 & 2 in Japan does the ist also have a gen 1 & 2? I ask because I have a ist as my back ground & it does not use the T badge on the front of the car, so whats up with that?

Actual Ist uses "I" emblem in front grill. It's a totally different emblem/grill. The Toyota xA's in other countries use the Toyota emblem in the front grill. Personally, I like the Toyota emblem in the front grill better than the "I" emblem.

What kind of b/kit is that tbblizzard?

Ok that clears it up. I think thats a Kenstyle kit, could be wrong though.

it's a fabulous kit... i don't like it, i want the nkb kit :lol:
i'm on trd springs and they don't drop much, but the front of this body kit is like 6" from the ground. :roll:

tbblizzard:

whre did you get the T badge from on the rear of you car? I found that the rear emblem on the newest solara's are only a half inch smaller then the stock scion badge on the rear. what did you use???

I got it from Singapore on a trade. That 1/2" smaller will make a difference. The emblem sits inside a groove, it'll look funky if you have something smaller than the grove in there.

can you help me get one? I need one before the 3rd of October for Extreme Autofest in San Diego. If you could that would be GREAT!

i can get you the whole grill......but it will not get here before then......and it will be coming from japan.........

does the ist grill fit on us spec xa's? i am not sure, i am a xb man.........

:shock: Might need to look into getting one of those :roll: Is that from Ebay? If so then :evil:, not going to trust a person on a site like that.

yahoo japan auctions to be exact chuck......i got you on part from japan new or used...just let me know what you need...... :D

I will do that once I get my xA :roll:

i got the grill already... i just need the two badges on the rear. CAN YOU GET BOTH THE BADGES???

extreme autofest eh... i'm going to that :D

if you're using the usdm spec grill/scion grill, then you don't want an Ist badge, you want the T badge from a Highlander. They call it a radiator badge. If you need help mounting it up let me know. :P
