Gold badge

[tottacrolla]

I remember seeing a gold plated Toyota logo badge on the front of a mk2 MR2 and the owner telling me it was a special edition car.
anyone know anything about this ?

Sounds like dribble to me, was probably a badge bought off eBay!

EBay special that will be

tbh it was a long time ago '96 I think, yeah about a year before I bought my rev1 turbo.
He showed me around the car and convinced me I should buy one, did me a big favour I reckon. I still have the turbo but now I have an AE86 to keep it company.
His I'm sure was a U.K car and the badge looked lovely on, as I remember dark blue paint.

I love the stock black ones I have on my black supra twin turbo, looks awesome I might get a set from MR T for my little 2

Hey sry for my bad english

i think the gold badget is not a special edition of the MR2
There is a car in my town with the gold badget
But I'm not what model it is, I believe, however, it is a Camry

Mr t did use different colour badges on there model range

So where can you get black ones from? My silver one is fooked and I think black on yellow will be nice YUM...

Go to Toyota ask them for a set of front badges for a mkiv twin turbo supra. (Jza80) 1994 and they will have to order them in. I'm going to get a set for my little2

The guy on Dragons Den a few years back was apparenly doing gold Toyota badges -allot of them are very thin gold plated. To be honest everyone I know which has seen them either knows a pub landlord or the owner of a curry house which has gone to the effort of putting them on. Sorry not my taste (they're chuffin horrid) but they're out there. There was never a genuine gold Toyota badge despite what allot of folk seem to say.

Lexus did do a gold plated badge set for the ls400 back in late 90's we used to fit loads..

[JDM-MAT]

Would that not be a Lexus one Tho not Toyota ?

[Leakie Tbar]

Yes Lexus as I said for the LS400

Back in the Ninties lexus and toyota shared the same garage's and the exact same parts stores I worked at one of these for 7 years the Newcastle Toyota Lexus dealer ( they are the same company!!) it wasnt till the late 90's they requested seperate dealers..

Most of the toyota/lexus accsessories where availible on both marks
gold badges included these where availible for toyotas in gold chrome MR2's included we've seen plenty of imports with gold badges







there's plenty of toyota MR2 accsessories that we have never seen, then all of a sudden something pops up gold chrome badges where all the rage in the 90's

have you been on the mr2 scene long??
