TRD Badge - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

I have been thinking about swapping out my S on the front grill for a TRD badge. I searched for pics to see how it would look, but didn't really find any good ones. Has Anybody Done this? and would you be so kind to post a couple pics? Also, Anyone have pics of TRD badge on trunk lid? Thanks guys.

On a side note I decided to try the intake mod. I removed the tubing coming off the intake going to the silencer. I must say I notice an ease of throttle modulation, response, and if for no other reason at all, IT SOUNDS AWESOME.
I recommend it.

I remember seeing one on the front of a red S and it looked really nice. You have a red S too right?

Only get them if you actually have TRD parts on your car.

+1 Other wise you had might as well get an XRS badge on a S, or maybe a NOS sticker without NOS.

Do the TRD badges have clips to attach to the grill or do they use adhesive?

The ones I found have clips. Trying to find one cheaper than 30 bucks though. 19 plus 10 for shipping.

Yes, TRD police. They will only be installed AFTER I have had my trd springs FSB and RSB Installed. LOL

Still waiting on springs from dealer. they are on back order till end of the month. I have been thinking about ordering a pro kit from amazon though, and then just having the dealer write me a check. We shall see, but OMG would I still be able to put TRD badges on my car?

I'm guessing this will be low quality (not looking to buy, but just happened to see it and remembered this thread):

Thanks Boss, that one does not have the clips for the grill,

and I already bought one for the trunk that is, IMO, of better quality. Good looking out though!!

Good ebay seller though, they offer good prices on little trinkets nobody wants ( or should have too ) spend a lot of money on. I have purchased stuff from them before. In fact I just bought some lockable TRD valve caps from them a few days ago.
