I'm new to all of this but here goes, a really good friend of mine has an 07 tc he loves his car more than anything else. We are like brothers so i know what he wants to do to the car we have done a few things to it already. He is currently out to sea and i want to do a few minor things to his car that i know he wants done, for his birthday which he is going to miss, i have the car and everything i just need help on a few things.

-his rear trunk handle is broken and i want to get a new one but badgeless, any ideas of where i can buy one?

-badgeless grille?

Thats mainly it, just some links to some legit sites that sell things like that would help a lot.

Thanks for your time.

me personaly i like the vrd grill they come in chrome or black and you get the upper and lower piece for around $200 new you can just google vrd grill scion tc and you will see bunch sites come up and the sites are legit

as far as the badge less garnish handle which i may be wrong which i am a few times well good bit of times, lol i don't think anybody actually is out there selling some yet .. they have couple companies working on them from what i read but i know a few people who removed the rear emblem, then did the filling, then sand it, then paint it and last clear coat it .. or some other people i know just had a body shop do it for them ..

good luck and welcome ah board scikotics if you have any questions don't be afraid to ask whether you think it may be dumb, stupid or something we will try our best to answer or go find out .. everybody here has knowledge about everything and is very helpful

Meng has CF trunk garnishes. Check em out in the sciko sponsor section.

Also search for the Aurora garnish, something Aurora is working on with Oznium. Still in pre-order stage, but it's a cool piece.

Thanks for the help, we are going to attempt the interior trim, i do body work and paint so it shouldn't be too much of a challenge( famous last words lol) I'll put some pics of what we do up this weekend. About how much would it cost to get the OEM trunk garnish from the dealer?

^^ Thanks bro.. Links fixed!!!

Ebay may have a clear trunk handle..

I dont know if you guys have ever found a tC in a junk yard.. I look all the time and cant find one... From what I understand all Scions are around 90% recyclable.. So most all are just parted and sent back to Japan, or recycled here..

Oh, and why buy OEM and do work.. You can get the Badgless Carbon Fiber garnish for just $11 more..

Not a big fan of that c12 guy that makes those pieces I bought some mirror covers and took over a month to get in and then after that long wait they have a big gap they don't fit good .. i also got the fuse box cover and well the box keeps falling off and even the gas tank cover has a small gap ..

This is the reason I dont buy any Carbon Fiber parts.. Unless I know for sure that they are quality..
