I like the rear emblem but the front emblem looks weird. I think it's because it doesn't have the cutouts.

 

ima paint mine on friday i think. day off... lolz

EDIT: what paint did you use and where'd you get it?

 

I'm not a fan.

 

Not bad.

 

i think it would look good if you painted the piece behind your front emblem the color of your car and you also paint the scion letters a different color

 

facebook is blocked at work. I no see pics... :/

 

i just went to home depot and asked them what paint i could use on plastic! the brand is rustoleum and i used a matte black!

i dont know how to directly post pics.. =/ sorry i tried but i couldnt figure it out! btw i like ur tC i saw ur pics on ur thread and i am pretty impressed! just got a question how did u take out the side mirror plastics to paint them? i cant seem to figure out how to take them out

 

The side mirrors just pop off, stick a finger nail under it and gently pull up/out

facebook is blocked? you can totally make a valid argument to your bosses that its necessary to social network for scions, being all underground marketing and all. hell, my scion rep is always on scionlife and facebook, he was on facebook when he was selling me my car! ( i mean it was up but he was paying total attention to be the whole time)

IMO matte black/charcoal badges only look good on white cars. but with that said, your paint job looks really good.

Originally I was the only one using facebook at the dealership. (which the GM is ok with, for the reason you mentioned) but some of the salespeople started going on, then the cashiers... service... etc... it got out of hand, where every monitor had facebook up, one of the managers meeting it was discussed and I suggested blocking it... (expecting the GM to still allow me to use it... LOL, GM said it wouldnt be fair to everyone else if I was the only one with access). So in the end, I am the reason why its blocked. HAHA

 

looks really good!

how did you go about taking the emblems off of the front and back?

 

probably a blow dryer on the back and very carefully prying the front emblem.. im 50/50 on this.. the back isnt bad.. but i dont know about going that far to do it on our color.. hmm

 

how do you take off the rear emblem????
