Usually you can buy the 3M double sided tape for emblems. But you need to remove ALL the residue from the old adhesive before you re-apply it.

this is a slightly off topic, but does anyone know where i can purchase lettering emblems that have the same font as 'Solara'??

It's not available unless you create a A-Z font that somewhat resembles it. Otherwise you will have to scan it or copy.

sadly enough..one of my favorite parts of the car and one of the things that first attracted me to the car was the font of the "solara" emblem. there's something about the back of the car that is just unique. no other car looks like it..the accord kinda looks like it from the side, but the solara is just too unique. i luv it!!

maybe that's why i can't understand why people would wanna take of the solara emblem..i have some kind of sentimental, emotional attachment to it. :angel:

I'm not that attached to it but I do like it so it's the only one I left on

I did a series of Photoshoping to see which combination looks the best... the result is: Keep the Solara emblem ONLY and it will look the best.

Its the only one I left on the back. Mine is gold and was a little fadded, so I bought new badges. I had to get all of them which I really didnt need or want. I replaced the old Solara w/new shinny gold one. Looks good. I clear coated it as well to slow the fadding process.

I disagree. I think the Toyota symbol by itself looks the best. Thats what I did, and my car looks pretty pimpin. But obviously thats just my opinion, so whatever you think looks the best, more power to ya.

yeah, i was just thinkin' of just leaving the 'Solara' and take off the toyota emblem and the toyota wording. that way, when people ask me what kinda car it is, i can just say toyota. versus: "what kinda toyota is that?"
reply: "its a solara."
"a what?"
"SOLARA"
"sol. . .what?"

*sigh* "it's a 2 door camry coupe. . ."

yup, that's what I have to resort to.

A girl the other day tried to guess what car I drove.
She finally got it down to a Toyota Camry after a several guesses. I figured I should torture her for a while, "Sort of, kind of, you're so close but you'll never guess it." After a while, "Nevermind, you'll never get it. I'd be surprised if you ever heard of it. Solara."

"Oh? What's that?"
"It's the two door camry, but they call it a Solara. It's prettier too"

most people dont really know the name of the car or what a SOLARA is. thats what i came to find out. ITs a little bit frustrating when you walk into a rice shop to ask about a product and the guy looks at you like youre driving an UFO when you answer his "what car do you drive?".
