just thought I'd put this up, I painted it last week. Lots of threads about emblems, new from lexus they're $10 each. I haven't done the front yet because I want to do the chrome piece around the grill also, I just haven't ordered it yet. And it's about $110 for a new one. Doing stuff like this, it pays to have stock replacements on hand to replace if you mess something up, or, in my case decide to trade it in for a different daily driver.

Hey......anyone know the stock toe setting on the front of these?
I figured I'd ask before I go looking. Because I think the steering on this car can be improved

I will ask this for a lot of people wondering the same thing, can you confirm that once you remove the "GS350" there are no holes behind them?

jbrinkley

two holes each side, fill and repaint entire plastic panel, be CAREFUL, that's a $700 OEM piece.

"repaint entire plastic panel" uhmmm forget that !!! it looks clean but not worth it, there have been members who fill in the holes and touch up with paint, then wetsand and polish but repainting the whole panel......that is crazy IMHO

jbrinkley

say what you will, but spraying the whole panel is the right way.

looks like he repainted the rear "black" plastic diffuser too. maybe just something he wanted to do or perhaps after an accident. it is a little extreme to do all those repainting just to remove the emblem.

naw, no accident, and the bottom lip is still black. Lexus did buy me a new front bumper cover, that they damaged, so the paint was already paid for. Thats why I had the rear panel painted and holes filled.

That looks really clean. I like it.
