I do the opposite... de-badge my cars
I debadged my trunk emblems other than the "L" also, looks cleaner forsure, but I think if the calipers are the right color along with the Lexus decal it can be pulled of nicely.

My car is re-badged Aristo GS400 on the trunk with the Toyota logo in the middle. I also have the Toyota logo on the front grill. Really confuses the heck out of joe average.

My calipers are gloss black with white Lexus on the front and Lexus L on the back. I like the color combo.

Lexus Logo steering wheel covers included in the sale? Might as well throw one of those on as well.

Hey. I'm looking for some help. Where or how can I get my brake calipers powder coated at? I just bought a 2001 Lexus GS430 and I was looking to get the calipers maybe coated red. Anyone got any tips on how I can get them powder coated? I prefer to pay some $ and get them professionally coated then to do at home. Please, someone please give me some advice. And to JAWNPAWN, put whatever color and style fits you right. Do what makes you happy my friend ..

This is my car. I think red would blend nice with the calipers. That's my opinion.

What happened with the Caliper covers you wanted so bad? how about Pink , with a H logo all around including the Trunk, this will match perfect with the Halo, Audi headlights and Pink rotor covers you also wanted.

Lol...I have gloss black calipers with white "LEXUS" decals on them. Looks pretty good, lots of folks think they came like that from the factory. Nice and clean.

I aint into the debadging and rebadging my car into something that it is not. We are not in Japan, we are in the USA, therefor you drive GS 300/400/430's not Toyota Aristo V300. That to me is ricer, just plain ridiculous. I hate it when I see dudes debadge their G35's and put Nissan Skyline on them. This is only my opinion...

although you do not like the white. I do think a nice glossy white would look pretty classy.
