I have a few questions about these badges. I am interested in swapping out my badges with the Rumion badges.

1. How many badges does it take to swap?
-I know there is the front grill, the back left corolla rumion, the back right G, the back right aerotour, and the back center Toyota emblem. Is there anything else? Ive seen something along the lines of TRD Sportivo. Does that belong on the Rumion?

2. What do all the badges stand for?
-If the above amount is correct, what does the G, the Aerotour, and the TRD Sportivo emblems stand for? Obviously I know the Toyota and the front/rear Corolla Rumion logos are.

3. Where is teh best place to get these?

4. Can I merely go to a junk yard and just pick off the Toyota emblem for the front and rear and just swap them?

Thanks for not flaming.

 

Here's a start...

Okay, I'll try answer all your questions:

1. You need 4 badges to do the complete re-badging. The radiator emblem, for the rear hatch you need the "RUMION", "G" or "S", and the Aerotourer, and the "T" emblems. The "COROLLA" that goes on top of the RUMION is just a vinyl sticker that you can get your local graphics shop can cut for you, the cut I used is 1.5" height x 6" length. You can also get the TRD Sportivo put on on your car if you have the Sportivo suspension setup.


2. The "G" emblem represents the highest top-of-the-line Rumion in Japan while the "S" is more for the sport-trim level.

3. You can contact Luis with www.newscionparts.com by calling, just ask for him and he'll take good care of you. Make sure to mention Ned ;)

4. For the "T" Toyota rear badge you can use the one for the 07 Camry rear trunk emblem. Stop by your local Toyota dealer to purchase one. It cost me about $16.00.

I hope I was able to answer your questions, good luck!!!

Here's how mine looks like:

 

LoL nice

 

the TRD Sportivo sticker doesnt belong on the Rumion but i know the guy that owns the xB with the sportivo vinyl and its only available in Japan and its available on the Vitz only.

 

Wow, thanks alot. That really does answer everything!

Only one more question: what is that logo above the aerotourer. Also what does the aerotourer stand for.

And DAMN $108 + $25 for shipping. Thats fuggin ridiculous!

 

Aerotourer is the more.. i guess.. aerodynamic version.. comes with spoilers mudguards.. etc.. to make it look more sporty. i wanted to go with the X.. but the guy who i got it from accidentally got me the wrong one.. so i have the G Aerotourer now.. =P

the logo above my emblems is 16V that I bought from overseas. Sinzz is right, there is also the X version which is the lowest trim level if I stand correct.

 

Hmmm. Ok.

So I guess newscionparts has all these decals minus the 16V. Any other websites that might have some pictures or sell these? I will do some searching on eBay and Google to see if I can't find anything and post it up.

Thanks guys.

 

i know of a guy.. but i don't know if he does shipping.. if you'd like i could ask for you..

u tend to pay more for some rare JDM parts. save the $$$ and buy when u have enough, in the meantime shop around if u can find a better deal on the badged.

i know one guy is selling all the badge that include front rumion, rear toyota, corolla sticker, rumion emblem, G emblem..all those for $160 shipped..

 

Does the front badge fit well in place of the Scion badge?

 

i think it including the front emblem

 

I wonder if Japanese tuners are turning Rumions into xBs, or is it just a US thing? lol

 

actually.. they throw scion badges on the Rumions.. as with the 1st gen bB's.. its something different..

 

Someone should really figure out a way for us to swap parts with kids overseas...I would trade my whole front end for someone's Rumion front end in a heartbeat.

 

lol.. shipping would be ridiculous..

Be as it may, just the parts for a full exterior conversion are about $5,000 all together. I can't imagine it would be 5k to ship some bumpers, fenders, headlights, and taillights. Oh well, I got a buddy out here with family in Singapore, I'll talk to him about it sometime when I have cash.
