Arrow covering the holes under "GS350"

How about another emblem/sticker? Such as the F-Sport emblem?

you know thats just a sticker and not the actual emblem right?

only way i can think of doing something cheap is trying to find a small plug might fit in the hole. either that or just take it to a shop and have them fill in the holes and use touch up paint to cover it.

That piece can be removed and painted without painting the entire trunk. My body shop did it in 2 days

Why not leave the GS350 where it is and put the F Sport sticker/emblem under or above it?

ooooo yeah. opaline pearl.

if they feather it, hopefully it will match. good luck. dots should be small enough not to notice any shade differences
