To Rebadge or Not Rebadge? - Toyota Yaris Forums

Yeah, debadging was also an option (it is pretty popular on higher-end cars in Germany, such as M-Bs and Audis, it's considered a status symbol not to have the badges on the car); but in looking at pics it makes it look a little too bare for my tastes.

The other thing is that the car will still have a huge Toyota sombrero on the steering wheel, and I recently got the 09 bumper mat which has 'Yaris' written across it; so throwing on the Netz/Vitz badges will only cause a huge mismatch. But like Benggolf2, I like messing with people which is why the Netz/Vitz badges are appealing! Still, my wife said the same thing as kimona, that they look like Hyundai badges!

Decisions, decisions...

Cheers! M2
