Default Where is the xB Emblem???

I was just going through the brochure and while looking at the rearward views I noticed the lack of a rear xB emblems or any xB emblems to identify the vehicle from the out side. Are these the finished products or will the actual cars have xD and xB emblems?

Wonder why none of them have it in the brochure? Can anyone tell if it's the exact same emblem as 1st gen xB?
What color blue is that? It's almost like playdoe blue.

I was glad to see (when I inspected it up close) that the rear Scion badge can be shaved just like before. There's no indentation or placeholder for the badge, like the tC. So shaving will work the same as gen 1.

There is a hump above the badge in the bodywork, but that can be overlooked.

I think this is just the right shape for the rear Scion emblem replacement.

That should get some double takes.

No. I did not see a Packer emblem and the only difference is the colors. The G is the same. But you obviously knew that.
Mostly I was thinking any number of nice oval shaped chrome emblems could look good in that spot.
Maybe something like this?

As already mentioned, obviously you could do a regular Toyota emblem. For that matter, why not a Lexus emblem. That would mess people without a clue right up.

That TRD one would be nice if the size is right! But yes, any one of the oval badges would work and still mess with people.
