Well, i wanna do it myself to save money. Do i buy touch-up paint of the color of my car and then use toothpick and just fill the holes up with the paint? Or how did you do it? Thanks

^ that would look ghetto. It needs to be blended. Don't ruin your hatch if you don't know what you are doing. Get it professionally done (if you have no experience), or live with an emblem. :2cents:

no, because the hole doesnt go thru the entire trunk.
