new prius badge

anyone seen the new badge for the prius... i think it's kinda cool. pictured below is the rear badge i believe. anybody know if this will fit the yaris? also i read somewhere that it lights up so would it even be possible to remove it?

I didn't know they had their badge like that! Very cool!

But... would you use one of those for your Yaris?? I don't know... I think it would be kinda RICE... but I don't know... just a little opinion...

it may not be for every colour but i think it would definitely look good on a blazin blue... possibly the bayou blue. idk though i'd have to see it. depends on what all else is going on with the car's exterior.

I saw one last week, I think it adds a nice touch. I had no idea that it lighted up, thats cool.

How is a OEM emblem considered RICE .....

I consider it RICE, because in my opinion using one of those on the Yaris would look like the Honda Civis that use those Honda "OEM" lighted badges...

I'll try and verify the badge for you all.

but I know the following:

-front and rear are in the same style as the picture
no more of the grille look (the spaces are all filled in on the front one)

- the front is removable as for the back I'm betting it is studded into the metal

- I will check on the light up but from looking at them up close they aren't light permeable and I don't see any wires. (didn't turn the lights on or off)

lol no to be honest i don't do business with those clowns anymore. worst service department ever. so i just avoid them altogether when i can. i just needed to see the parts department about getting a pic of the 09 bumper cover without the sport lip.

sorry if my typing came across harsh.

it's just as Yar1s stated and I stated too, it's just the look of it. instead of it having that grille inside the chrome areas, they made it smooth and put a black sticker with blue 'halo' edging.

yes it can be removed; but put on a yaris we'll have to wait and see if someone at a dealership wants to do it....

or I can wait for a totaled prius to come in.....
