well i got the rumion badegs a little while ago and i finally had a little time to put them on today. actually i only have the 'rumion' & aero tourer' and a 07 camry rear toyota badge & a 05 tacoma front toyota badge.





you know ive read in some other posts that the 07 camry rear toyota badge is a direct fit. so i bought me one from the local toyota dealer.....and it wasnt :(
as you can see from the pic, the camry badge is slighty bigger. but it fits fine! all i had to do was cut the 2 pins on the back & mount it a little higher so the edges cover the holes from the scion badge perfect :o

Was the front a direct fit from a Tacoma?

x2, you don't have a Toyota Rumion. You have a SCION XB. You should have de-badged the entire car, that would have looked nicer.

i wouldnt say the tacoma emblem was a direct fit. its the same size though! but the tacoma emblem has got like 6 clips/tab thingies on the back that you gotta cut off. after that all you need is some double sided adhesive tape.

Sounds easy, but the grill has the scion shape when you take off the front badge...do you have a close-up pic of the front? I already did the back today and I had to raise it up a little. Looks just like yours
