Toyota badge broken under plastic covering

[wolf_kyle]

The emblems they can probably get in a few days. The lights take much longer. I had a blemish on my leather seats and it took 4 months before they were able to replace with correct part. Just ask your service manager for a time frame. I know some of the parts are a PIA to get from the depot

i just called them they said they have no records of my car having any parts ordered for it. these arent the only things wrong that my car had coming from them.
- minor crack on the driver side mirror turn signal and a scratch on the side mirror connecting portion
- passenger window trim tear

i know theyre just minor things but for a brand new car, it was poorly maintained by the dealers..

A little abused it looks like. Was it just sitting in the showroom so everyone could see it?

Actually the mirrors they must of changed at the dealer and pressed incorrectly to cause the crack

from what i know. they had to do a dealer trade from a different dealer. so they had to drive it. im guessing they hit some "bumps" on the road or the other dealer just didnt take care of it. i just hope they get this fixed. like they should. Honestly I havent been driving it because they might blame me if i see more problems that show up that i dont know about yet.

Anyone else see that their Toyota badge is broken but is also under a plastic cover?

Opening this back up. I hope there will be an aftermarket replacement that only says “Supra” on the front badge.
I saw mine was cracked today and replacing it now seems like a waste of time as it will continue to keep cracking.

I've replaced mine right after buying the car Aug '19 and applied Xpel on it. No cracking yet. ~4000 miles mostly on the highway. I'll suggest protecting yours as well...

There really needs to be a better, higher quality looking badge for the Supra. Hopefully some more options come out soon. Seems almost every has problems with them and/or hates the look. Mine are also cracked in the same manner as some of these.

I know Thic Whips is working on a new option with a 3d printed backing plate color matched to car and the toyota badge off the GT-86 I think. Looked really good actually. As soon as I see them for sale I will be pulling trigger.

Does anyone here have their front toyota emblem cracked?

Mine is, and also another guy i met this weekend also have the same thing.

Seems like the front emblem crack is a common issue

I just dropped off my Absolute Zero Supra to get PPF/Cermic Coating and the guy there was looking at my front emblem. I asked him what he was looking at. He said he was looking for hairline cracks.

It seems that during shipping, it is typical that cars could get shoved around and at times, they may need to be repainted. So the dealership would remove the emblem so they can repaint the car. However, not all of them know how to remove the emblem correctly so they crack.

I cannot say this is what happened to your car, but it could be worth checking out.

~ No cracking on my original emblem and I have wrapped it in ppf for added protection.

They do seem to scratch up quickly when unprotected. Poor quality.

well, for what it's worth, my car has not been repainted. I have a paint gauge, I am a self taught detailer with plenty of hours, and accomplished my own paint correction on my brand new supra. Factory paint normally comes with swirls. The cars have been washed, sometimes multiple times, with shit practices before delivery. I can say though that my car was never repainted and therefore should have never had reason to remove badging. I'm not positive that the badging was never removed, just that the car was most likely never repainted, as is likely the case with most of these shit badges. Whoever has a perfect badge may just be lucky. The majority normally speaks the truth.

That’s a sweet set but for $555 they better include a few hookers and some blow. ?

Well I tend to be a bit creative and had some overlay decals designed for my Supra in a couple different styles.

The material is of high quality via Oracal produced for outdoor signage.

I had a few extras made should anyone be interested. $30 for a matching set (front and rear) shipped.

Thoughts?
