I really want this type of emblem, but I'm not so sure of this condition this one is in. I'm mainly concerned about the metal, I'm fairly certain that I can polish the fogginess away from the center. Whaddaya think?

I only want the front though. With the back, I want to shave everything and put the old school cursive "Celica" on the left. Yahoo Japan?

Whole emblem just made out of plastic no metal part So could I polish it, no problem? If so, what could I use? And what do you think about that weird dent on the top right? -------------------- taking too long to mod since '09
