Japanese (Asian) Car Badges?
This is a pretty random question but I noticed whenever I see pictures of vehicles sold in Japan, a lot of things are written in English - even on the interior.
Does anyone know if they make (and where to get) badges for your car in Japanese (Hiragana/Katakana) ... Chinese (Kanji) would be pretty cool too. I mean authentic looking metal ones that Toyota/Honda would actually put on the back of a car -- not those giant ricer white stickers.
I tried looking online w/ little luck but I would so attach something like this to my ride if I could find em.
Thanks!

As far as I know, there aren't any Hiragana/Katakana/Kanji badges for the current JDM cars, unless you meant the warning labels, dealer stickers or the Japanese parking permit sticker.
Some cars DO have buttons labeled in Japanese, here's a few that I can remember off my head;
-Toyota Century
-Gen.2 Toyota Aristo (With Navi.)
-Nissan Fuga (And other cars equipped with Nissan's Carwings Navi system.)
-Mitsubishi Pajero (1999 - 2006 model.)
-Honda Lagreat
-Honda Odyssey (JDM version)
-Honda Elysion
btw, here are some names of the VWs in China;
Sagitar= Gen.5 Jetta
Magotan= Gen.6 Passat
Passat Lingyu= Gen.5.5 Passat LWB with a different front & rear.
Bora HS= Exclusive for China facelifted gen.4 Golf.
Jetta= gen.2 Jetta (Yup, they still make them there!)
