Steering wheel emblem

So when it gets nicer out, I'm going to paint my rear and front "toyota" emblems as well as the "yaris" in the back. Haven't decided on a color yet, but I was just curious if anyone has taken off the steering wheel emblem to paint that as well?! You know, give the interior a little flare.

Thanks

they already have the colors in between/around the Toyota emblem for the steering wheel in Japan. I found where you can get them, but the seller doesn't ship outside of the country :(

i too am kind of curious if those can be removed and painted and how to go about doing that... i was thinking about color matching some pieces in my interior to the outside and that could be a good addition.

It's mounted with the melted plastic bosses (lots of them). Here's a view from the back (from Crashy's which had the airbag popped):
