No, it does not cover the whole area. Mine looks like the paint almost has little bubbles underneath it, probably from tthe car being in the sun or something. Getting a new badge still looks a lot better though than regular Toyota symbol.

One for the front and one for that back...

I would like to get 2 black badges. One of them I would like to put on the back. I think I read that one needs to remove the pins to place on the back and that you could do that.

Also, whats the best way to remove the old "T" toyota badge without damaging the paint?

Thanks!

Yes, I can remove the pins on one of them, although it involves nothing more than snapping them off. There is a thread in the library on debadging, but I have found dental floss or fishing line to work best.

+1 to fishing line (dental floss wasn't getting it done for me). Also, pour some boiling water to loosen up the adhesive under the badge right before you do it...parking in the sun on a hot day helps this as well.

I was able to use dental floss on the MR2, but fishing line works better (doesn't break as easily). However, when I debadged the FR-S, I ended up using a medium stiffness guitar pick. You should use some GooGone to remove the remaining adhesive.

I need to get another PGP badge from you soon M&M as the body shop replaced mine with the OEM blue one. I'm saving up! :)
