There is a 3rd gen 4Runner I've seen around town a few times that has a full BMW M3 badge package. It looks so lame, I've got to get a pic next time I see it. I should look at the front and see what he's done up there too.

i saw a miata COVERED with ferrari badges. 2 up front (hood and air damme), outer doors, trunk, seats, stearing wheel, shifter, dash, interior doors. I sat and laughed @ him, he got pretty irritated. Funniest thing i have ever seen. A super compact, 4 banger Ferrari with a body kit!

Our Acura RSX is still an Integra in Japan and most JDM stuff is just factory rice anyway kinda like 4Runner hood scoops. It's funny how they market cars in Japan vs the US.

I would avoid the Scion emblem since it represents the lower end of Toyotas but I also wouldn't fit a Lexus emblem on my Runner either.

I know that the RSX is still an integra in japan, even in canada I believe its an integre, and I know there are no acuras in japan, as well as lexus and infinitis, just honda, toyota, and nissan. I think toyota has another brand name in japan like they do here but its not lexus and I dont know what it is, I was on a fishing boat with this japanese guy and he was telling me about it but hes veryhard to understand.

and about the G35 being the skyline in japan... its still dumb because we arent in japan. same deal with civic type r's, there is none here, well there might be a few but the ones ive seen I know they are not.

also it goes both ways and ones worse than the other.

like an acura civic is just plain retarded cuz that kid is an idiot just thinking acuras nicer than honda but same thing basically. kid that puts H badges on his integra is still kinda a wanna-be but at least he knows whats up and they are honda integras in japan.

also that was in up in smoke if I remember correctly.

whats the big deal? yea its annoying when ppl put badges on cars that dont match but whatever floats their boat. and the scion isnt a bad car, they made a cheap line for ppl that cant afford the more expensive things. i'd rather ppl buy cheap scions than cheap pontiacs. anyways, if he wants to put a scion badge on, let him. i think its funny when i see die hard americans slap gt-r badges on their burbans or mustangs...but thats different.

i dont know if it would fit or not. good luck.

ok, well imagine a japanese guy whos only on the boat to work and not learn english saying that word to you!

but I would say you can put the V8 badging if you wanted to cuz you got the V8 in there now, but it isnt a lexus is it???

unles the V8 badge says like lexus LX470 V8 all on the same badge then nope, shouldnt go on.

and I dont know why I get all bent out of shape about it either but for some reason I do, I just hate it when people do stupid crap to their car/truck
