on the battery....If you do the same of one (autobot/autobot) maybe making them facing opposite ways would look less repetitive and balanced.
Have one right side up, and the other upside down....you know rotate it 180 degrees.... i dunno what do you think that would look like?
I'm probably not going to get a battery hold down because my CAI covers like half of the battery! its a Volant.

Im interested in the raw stuff front & back. Maybe I'll be able to finish my stainless emblems with a brushed metal effect.
I'd like the front to come disassembled but with D-tape on the stainless part.

Also, would it be $3 shipping cost for front & back?

yes $3.00 for shipping if you order both @ the same time. and dissassembled is no problem.

The only thing that really concerns me about the 2 sided tape is debadging. We all know that the normal Scion emblems get swiped on a regular basis. Just imagine the potential for these.

I still want one for the front and a battery cover. I want a rear as well, however, I'm gunna check with my body shop on how/where to drill holes and tack weld some bolts to the back of it. I'd hate for it to get stolen.

Now, you said that the fronts will be on a bB emblem? I still have the stock Scion emblem on my box. And since I'm probably keeping the stock grill around, all I have to get is a bB emblem?

It looks like all you have to do is remove your stock emblem from the grill, and pop the new one on. You probably need to drill out the slots to make room for the bolts for it to fit though.

I didn't know that people swiped the stock emblems, I thought people took them off voluntarily! :D

I haven't had any problems with people messing with my box yet... accept a few weeks ago it got toilet papered! Darn punk kids in the neighborhood! no damage tho

has anyone ordered the emblems in red yet, that you might happen to have a picture of? i think I want to see them on my BSP box, if not I would go with the raw unpolished look. But either way, im in sac too, so could I swing by and pick up both emblems and battery tie from you in the future?

Well then I will be wanting the battery clamp polished with a red background, front emblem autobot polished with a red background, and a polished decepticon for the rear if you could shoot me a PM with all the details I would like that

Yea i would need some measurments off of it and it should be no problem. so if you are planing on getting that grill whate on ordering the front emblem i wont be able to cleanly remove the stock mountin setup to mod it to the new grill. i would just make a whole new one.

good stuff here. someone asked about the rear emblems being taped on. i have an xa and i want to take the chrome 'xa' off the rear door. how can i remove the rear emblem without chipping the paint... or does the back emblem have a screw behind the door where i have to remove it? just want to make sure i don't peel the paint.

i just pm,'ed you about the autobot emblem for the 06 xa grille - if possible can i get an autobot emblem for the back too? pm me with prices and shipping costs. silver... or yellow (my xa is red and it might stand out if the emblems were yellow).

Just search for it, its a well covered mod, all it really involves is a blow dryer and something like floss or fishing wire
