if you like it, do it. Just don't put bentley or dub emblems plz, since they look a bit.... tacky...

EDIT: If you could, get the L grill emblem from the LS460; that is a very nice badge

I always loved the mesh grill. I liked it even more with the LEXUS emblem spelled out

I wouldnt mind gettin that grill or the ones that look as if you don't have a grill. Some guys here have them but I don't know where to find them. I guess it seems old but to me that bodykit is the sweetest one they make for the 1st gen and I just wanted to switch it up but hey we own old cars so y not upgrade them?
