My car has a hole - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

Well, I was washing my car the other day when I noticed that something was missing from my car. Turns out someone stole my shiny toyota emblem off the front grill of my car. I could tell it was stolen because there were screwdriver marks on the edges. Now my car has a hole there and it just looks fugly. Checked on eBay but it hasn't popped up yet. I'll post pics up later to show how cool the hole looks.

That sux man...Last month when I lived in an apt I walked down to my car and noticed someone tried to steal my front liscense plate. I know bacause it was all bent like they didn't have a screwdriver and tried to just rip it off. Bastards!

This happened with my gold front emblem, I got a new one at the dealer for a whopping 60$ (canadian).

It's a slide through that clips down the hole. I put glue around it before sliding the new one back in.

These little F*%ks.

That sux. I had my personalized lisence plate stolen. It said "2PHAT4U', hey it was the 90s. Also had my $200 PIAA fog lights stolen at a dance club. They actually took the time to unscrew it with a screwdriver and disconnect the wires instead of cutting it.

hah, yeah, someone tried to steal my dad's foglights on his sentra in the mid 90's. They cut the wires and got 1 screw off and must have left after that

As for the emblem, sucks for you guys. I don't have a toyota logo on my grille anymore, and the little toyota badge on there right now won't go anywhere (i even tried prying it off once).

haha hilarious, just last nite I was messing with my neighbor about his lexus gs300 and how my camry would look nice with the badging lol. LOL hey think of the good side, now you have a big speed hole there. Now put a type R sticker and you have an easy +20 hp.

I think that one is for the trunk because the back of the emblem is flat. The front one has a back that is about 1/2 an inch think so you can put screws in them.

Maim Menu · 04-08-2006, 08:57 PM

The one on the front has a cylinder shape behind the chrome emblem that slides down the hole to clip behind the grille, this is not what you need although you could make it fit.
