Here's another one of my projects, one of the first couple anyway. I wanted to put a small touch on the outside of the car that would make it a little different than any others (although there's not many around here) so i decided on the Toyota OEM VVTi emblem. I bought this one on eBay from a seller selling authentic emblems and stickers. I heard the fake ones were very crappy looking and the adhesives were useless.
The cost was about $20.00 shipped. I prepped the paint with some claybar action and some Dawn dish soap to take any wax off in the area i was putting it on. I wanted to make sure the emblem stuck firmly. Peeled the backing off and voila. I wasn't exactly sure where to put it at first or to put one on at all, but i think it came out pretty good. Again, making sure the car didn't look like some hick modded car, but instead just a little more sporty and always classy. Let me know what you think. Here's some pics...![Thumb Up](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

So you figure vassey50's car is going to lean to the left now with the extra weight of only one VVT-i emblem on it? ![Stick Out Tongue](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/tongue.gif)
I think it looks great. And besides, who's going to go around the car to check to see if there's another identical emblem on the other side?
