Default "FSport" badges

Has anyone removed the "Fsport" badges on the fenders?

I want to remove mines. Before I do, I want to know if they are any holes on the fenders after you remove them, or they are simply sticked on with double sided tape?

There are guide holes in the fender and double sided tape. You will need the holes filled in by a bodyshop or get another logo or something

There are holes holding it. If you take it off you will need to fill in the holes

Man I think Toyota/Lexus factory got smart with the badges. They put holes on the panels to hold the badges and emblems. That way if any SOB losers decides to steal you badges you have no choice but to buy the sky high price emblem/badge for replacement. Since it will be cheaper than filling the holes and get the panel painted.

On my previous 2008 GS. there's no holes on the emblems. Some idiot decide to steal them, all I did was remove the remaining double sided tape and call it a day. BTW my previous GS looks better without the emblem in the trunk.

The trunk emblems have no holes by the way, it's only the fenders and the big L on the grille and trunk handle.
