Default lighted scion emblem...updated

It all started when I was installing my TRD springs. I forgot I had the hatch up and went to close the garage door, which caused a couple of huge scrathces. So I ordered a big style CF lip spoiler for the top mark and a CF overlay for the over mark. Will I got bored waiting for the overlays to come in. So I decided to try repainting the cover, Thats when I had this idea of lighting up the emblem. I had to use the front emblem, because the lights I use wouldn't work with the rear emblem. Which cause more problems, because I had to bondo the hole, so the front one would work. The paint doesn't match prefect, and the glue that I used for the emblem isn't working. So I think I'm going to orded the front emblem, which will have the tape on it for a clean look. Tell me what you think.

I kinda agree with rlong1221 that it doesnt really sound right for the car to be "cute"...
But i really appreciated the positive comment tC4italy made.
np that's what i think
and i made the comment b4 i knew whether u were a girl or a boy so it was a very objective comment

i will PM with a few questions in the next couple days :D (now im too lazy )

So how did u do this.. ? just put in an LED behind the emblem somehow? And where did you wire it to? Can u control it independently?
