SICKLEX. yes, you can use the 07 emblem for your 08 or visa versa, front and rear badges. you need goof off and 2 flat head screw drivers. the front emblem is held on by 3 plastic rivits and 2 sided tape the rears are just 2 sided tape but with pegs that go into these little holes on the trunk lid for alignment purposes.

for the front the rivits are the top of the L, 85 deg angle and the lower tip of the L. pry at those spots. the rear L emblem has the pegs at the same locations. pry there. the LEXUS has pegs on the middle half way down and at the second curve of the S. the gs4300 has pegs on the midle of g and middle of the last 0.

SF, not sure yet but that pic clearly ticked me off

Funny I was checking out a 2010 Prius (finally got to see one in person, most all are sold in 24 hrs) and the new Toyota badges are like the LExus badges with the blue trim in it and blue hybrid synergy drive badges....

Makes sense, because honestly I didn't notice the difference from the pic. I just didn't want to call you a liar.
