    Oh, gimmee a break. Suppose to be proud to be a Prii c owner/driver. Ashamed of it?? I'm 73 years old and I've owned two or three dozen classics and I love this one more than any car I have ever had. I put chrome alloy wheels on mine the first week I had it, just put leather on the interior, $1200.00 because I have a Sheltie that sheds all over. Man what people come up with.

    I've been debadging my cars for years and wanted to do the C but thought I had read the badges weren't just stuck on but also had pins that go into the metal??? So on the tailgate, you took both off? Were they applied with just adhesive?

    If I was looking for replacements I'd probably start with eBay.

    I didn't run into any pins or holes in body. It is my understanding that the center emblem and the side badges have pins with holes in the body. on the back I removed the prius c and the hybird badge. I washed the car to remove dirt so I wouldn't scratch paint. I then used some fishing line. put the line behind one edge and gently worked the line back and forth sawing the adhesive. I was very carfull so I would not break anything. it worked great. in 5 min. I had both off and the glue left behind came off with my finger. I then washed the area and put on some wax. It looks perfect:D

    I may change the center emblem on the back to an aftermarket scion that lights up. on youtube I saw someone change the scion to the toyota. so they are the same I think. the aftermarket ones that light up runs off your license plate light.

    I may end up with a Scion R32 turbo. ha ha ha

    Who said I am proud or ashamed of it?? unlike you I have not owned 24-36 classics, but I see no problem with messing with people. so I think removing badge is fine and rebadge can be funny:p

    Side fender badges have holes. Rears don't. Hood does.

    Wow, judge much? Maybe the poster just likes doing that to his cars and it has absolutely nothing to do with his/her personal feelings of pride or shame about the car. It is just his thing....

    I am always checking out other cars. I think it would be funny to have my mind bended trying to figure out what I'm seeing.

    Get "Limited"...I always chuckle when I see a PT Cruiser with a Limited badge....I don't think I've very seen one without!...so, how limited is it, lol.

    If you just have Limited and no reference to model that would be hysterical.

    Find an old Yugo badge. That would really mess with people.

    If you were driving a junker, I would appreciate your humor. However, I am proud to drive my Prius, and I wouldn't dream of removing its badge even for the sake of making a good joke. Then again, I'm not into "messing with people."

    Some people like the look of a clean rear end. Not everyone wants tattoos and brands all over it. :ROFLMAO:
