Friends: 1 |  Debadged! (save one) I know a lot of debadge threads wind up showing pics of a completely debadged Prius, but I was only interested in taking off two - the HSD symbol and the 'TOYOTA'. I find the TOYOTA to be redundant as most cars I see on the road only have their logo on the rear (not to mention the 2010 Prius doesn't have it at all) Here's how it looks... I think it makes the back cleaner and dare I say a little more elegant. Last edited by tredstone; 08-14-2009 at 04:12 PM. |

Friends: 2 | Re: Debadged! (save one) I'll have to say I prefer Pruis look as it is. I thought the badge looked good, but that is just me. It is still a fine looking car. |

Friends: 1 | Re: Debadged! (save one) You are correct. In my view the toyota badge is redundant. Your car looks great. I took mine astep further and removed all the badges save the front and rear logo emblems which are now painted black to match the car. I didn't like the wiper either. I prefer the clean look.

Friends: 0 | Re: Debadged! (save one) I'd rather remove all the badges too, but I understand there are holes under some of them, and I'm not willing to pay to repair the holes... |

Friends: 1 | Re: Debadged! (save one) Midpack, Only the side "HYBRID" badge and the front and rear "T" logo have holes. Everything else is just held by glue that is removable. |

Friends: 11 | Re: Debadged! (save one) Are the backs of the Toyota logo badges flat, or curved to match the hood/hatch curvature? |

Friends: 1 | Re: Debadged! (save one) Last year while buying parts for my 71 GTO Judge, I ran across 3 HEMI badges for a Hemi equipped 69 GTX. They were in perfect condition. I bought them and put them on my Prius with double sided badge tape. Now I have a one of none Hemi Prius on the front fenders and Hemi Hybrid on the rear hatch. You should see peoples quizzical looks and hear the comments made. Most have heard of HEMI but have no idea what the term HEMI means. They only know it's associated with speed and power of cars like the Hemi Cuda or Hemi Super Bird. For those here who don't know, HEMI is short for hemispherical shaped heads and hemisherically crowned pistons. Common in Performance Mopar products (Crysler Corp) in the late 60s and early 70s. -Paul R. Haller- |
