The part of the trunk where the Scion symbol is located, and where you push the button to open the trunk...it randomly just broke off as I went to open the trunk I have no idea how this happened, but it basically broke off and even the clips broke off as well, for the meantime im holding it in place with clear tape...which makes me look like this emoticon . Anywhere know where I can purchase a carbon fiber one? Preferably something thats also easy to install (double sided tape?). Thanks guys.

 

That actually happens quite often. I've seen tons of people talk about here and I just saw a tC over last weekend with green painters tape holding it in place.

I don't think anyone makes a good fitting one yet..

 

good luck finding one

 

Better edit that^ before he actually does try to talk to him. lol.

 

your right... editing now :D

 

haha grimey, its all good though, any way to fix it though? i dont think glue would hold up to well, ive seen a few tcs here with cf garnishes, its really that hard to find one?

 

I think most are overlaid with cf. but the original is right underneath it.

 

Simple Solution...

Dont tug on th Garnish when opening up the hatch!....

 

i just usually lift straight up.. *shrug*..

you crazy people and your "man-hands"

 

Yeah, I lift my trunk like that too. No problems so far.. *knock on wood*

It doesn't seem to be flimsy either..

 

what did you say? must tell me!

i broke mine and htey fixed it under warrenty

 

Well if you really want a carbon fiber one you can buy one here:

Good luck on fixing it.

 

I got a CF oen i bought from Scott8 not sure where he got it. Ima get it installed this weekend I will find out where he got it from and let you knwo the fitment once installed.

 

I broke mine a while back and fixed it a couple weeks ago..
My warrenty was up so I had to buy a new one from the dealership. Thing cost me 120 bucks

 

same thing happened to me i ended up hot gluing it in place and now its fine ever since been i dunno like 7 months about

 

damn. this has been happening to a lot of people lately. I push the button and pull up from the bottom now.

 

i push the button and grab the trunk from the bottom and pull from there

 

I have not had problems. Its a trunk you dotn need to be rough with it. Is there maybe a conection via what model yr these cars are? Maybe thats the problem.

 

Just get carbon fiber, if that breaks, get a carbon fiber hatch. And when someone asks, just tell them you are trying to get better gas mileage. jk But wow, I didn't know that a new one was $120, doesn't seem so bad to get the CF for $175 then.

 

In the Sponsored Sales theres a post about CF parts and they sell the CF hatch ganish for around 120 i think.
