whats up i just painted my front emblem and added the tc emblem to the front just wondering what u all think..........

 

IMHO; get rid of the "tC" emblem. Looks too busy with the ghosted "Scion" emblem. I painted my rear "Scion" and "tC" emblems black as well and put them back on. Looks great! I'm not into 'debadging' my tC.

 

As someone who doesn't own a scion, I think it looks good. Can't really see the scion emblem.

 

how and what did you use to paint your front emblem? I've always wondered if the black scion emblems were bought not painted, shows how much i know.

thanks for the help tho. lol

 

Looks good...I did the same thing to mine. The only problem I have with it is when bugs and road debris hit it, the paint chips. I've repainted it three times. I think I've finally found paint that works, because it hasn't chipped this time (knock on wood).

no i painted my emblem with flat black paint i didnt use a clear coat so we will see how long it lasts...... i think it will hold me over until i get a new grill....also does anyone know where i can get a b;ack slotted gril.... i have seen then in silver and brushed but im lookin for a black one thats slotted.... thanks for the responses

 

I got a little paint on my rear hatch by the rear emblem.... how can i get this off?? i used the flat black....i used a paint brush but i guess my jitter hands missed lol...well just seeing if anyone knows how to get this off....

 

paint thinner with a q-tip? ask someone who's debadged to send you theirs?

 

i think ur grille looks AWESOME!! ive been looking for the stock scion grille without the scion emblem cut-out but as far as i know it doesnt exist. i was wanting to put the tC on my grille too, but how did u install it?

 

i just used 3m tape no probs at all been through a bunch of car washes and tons of bugs and it hasnt fell off yet lol......

 

u tried to paint it on the car? LOL.

you shouldve just took it off and then got some double sided tape or see if you can find the emblem adhesive at local car part store. I couldnt find it, but double sided tape worked just fine.

 

yea i know.... thanks

 

Looks good, here is mine. Just painted it with flat black and no clear coat. Has been lasting me for longer than 6 months. Put silicone on the back and glued it back in, it will never come off. Also did it to the emblem in the back.

 

hey silver, what color did u use to paint the scion emblem on ur car? and u used 3m tape...LOL...looks like its been holding up good

 

I used Dulpi-Color 'Low Gloss Black' on my emblems. (As well as the grill on my Sub and the Mud Guards.) Shot them with 3-4 coats of Clear and they were good to go...
Front

Rear

IMHO, I think the Clear makes the emblems look a little more clean and professional. I haven't had any trouble with chipping and its been about 18 months since I painted them.

 

what is the clear actually called?

 

i just used flat black paint.......

 

dude why don't you have a front license plate, that's not fair!

 

how do u remove the scion emblems????.....i wanna put toyota ones instead!!!!....lol
