Guys black out the Yaris and Toyota symbol?? Are the symbols just glued on, will i have to do the blow dryer thing??

I am going to try to do mine white.
Probably a dumb question but I'm just now starting.

The front is especially easy, but for the rear- the easiest and best looking way (not necessarily the lease expensive) is to purchase another emblem from the Toyota dealer and keep it on the plastic that it comes on. Then sand it, prime it, and paint it. Use a hairdryer or heat gun (BEING CAREFUL NOT TO DAMAGE PAINT) to get the area of the badge warm- it doesn't have to be extra hot. Some suggest using fishing line (or floss) to slide between the paint and the adhesive to work as a knife and remove the emblem. I let mine dry for 24 hours before applying.
