    Actually, I have a coworker who owns a body shop. She owns it, her husband runs it. When I got dinged right about the spot where the side badging goes ('04s don't have side badges), I asked about buying badges to put over the blemish and one for the other side. She said it's no problem; they just order them as a part.

    That's what got me thinking about the HEMI thing. On the hatch, the HSD logo is under the PRIUS logo on the right. There's nothing under the TOYOTA logo on the left. Seems like a perfect place for a HEMI badge.

    Some f@#ker poured grape soda all over my drivers side door 3 days ago. I went into the store. Had just washed the car an hour ago. Came out & grape soda all over door...window. :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::clock:

    Sounds like a title for a new thread. This has nothing to do with the OP's question of how to get a new H. Sucks to be you though....

    Just re-arrange the remaining letters to BIRDY, and you'll have a new name for your car, too!

    Unless you desperately WANT that crap on your car... or there's a hole under there that you don't want to fill with a blinker... just take them off and leave them off.

    Here are my instructions for removal:
    Prius exterior rear

    And if you're still looking for the emblems, I may still have mine that I am willing to send.

    What was the final outcome? Did the perp end up paying or get a judgment against him?

    I heard from my friend that the perp was willing to agree to a plea bargain agreement in which he would agree to make full restitution to my friend, issue a written apology, and do some community service. :sorry:

    In my opinion, they should do the same thing to this guy that the Robert DeNiro character had done to the card cheat in the movie "Casino".... :D
