That is a good question. I was thinking about painting my bB emblems BCP.
Just clean theal good with some rubbing alcohol first and then use some adhesion promoter them spray them with whatever color you want and follow up with some clearcoat. You may want to start with some new ones that haven't been applied yet or just add new 3M double sided tape before re installing the rear one.

I think they would look great color matched like those new Tundras. Their emblems are body colored.

They look very nice. I'm thinking about getting mine done in the black chrome.

^ the real ones are in like a semi black chrome. Meaning they're chrome with a black chrome tint.

I'd still like to have someone come out with chrome xB and Scion logos. Those do look hot in bodycolor.
