I just brought it to a body shop and picked it up 2 days later. The place is supposed to be very good(the guy who recommended it deals with customers that have Ferraris and Maseratis and got his own 550HP civic painted there). Still the guy honestly told me that there could be a halo effect with a chance of 30%-40%. There is a white 2011 Scion on here that used bondo and i think he is still fine but then again I dont know what they used at the shop....maybe they have some special formula

@dan

just a pic showing the holes from inside

Very nice...

So the rear scion logo comes off just like the TC does? No screws or indent where the emblem is placed? Just comes clean off (minus the adhesive tape)
