    1)Put the badges back on
    2)Fill in the holes
    3) Leave as is

    I have a black car, so I painted the badges black chrome and replaced them. I removed the little colored wave and replaced after painting. 3m double-sided mounting tape will do the trick in case you mess up the existing adhesive.

    4) Cover with side marker / turn signal lights.
    I remember someone doing this in a debadging thread 4-5 years ago, but couldn't quickly find it.

    Good opportunity to mount something cool, like stickers or emblems.
    Or maybe small pewter animals, or something like that.

    thank you all for your replies. i kinda bent the thingys themselves when i took them off, so just putting them back on wont work. the small holes tend to immdiately age the car as wayyyy older than the 2014 model that it is,,,, And for my purposes that is a good thing because itz just not humble to be driving a brand new Prius if you know what i mean. Anyway my daughters suggest that maybe a couple of Hello Kitty puffy stickers might help. i guess i would need four stickers to put on.

    I just broke mine so now they just say "brid", saving up wasteable money to buy the g's fender badges. About 264 shipped is the cheapest i've found.

    I just put a set on. I paid the $264. Part numbers included below. You might try a Toyota dealer to see if they can get them. Looks like they can be had for about 8200-8800 JPY each, or about $70-80 each on foreign sites. So these guys might be making a hundred bucks after shipping. Mine had about 3 pages of forms that the sender had to fill out for customs.

    75374-52080, and 75374-52070

    Having terrible luck looking for these on random sites in other countries. Poopy. No luck with any online us dealers. I'll ask my buddies at a few different dealers locally.

    I bought TRD aluminum badges off ebay. Come a variety of sizes so measure the holes length. The ones I got cover perfect. The came off with the sticky tape that came so I bought 3M tape and they stuck for over two years with no problem. Be care going to long with a aluminum ones since they don't bend we'll. one side will goes of a slight ridge on the C so that can screw it up. Got many questions about how OEM the looked when I got side swiped and the collision place was trying to order new ones. Paid like $20 for them. Plus those nice plastic ones from above are in the $100-$200 range if I remember right.

    Yeah I bought a few none long enough. Let alone to be long enough to cover both holes and be in the sane fore to aft position.
