Black Pearl
I know that I've seen posts saying that they're not available, but my dealer (Superior South-KC, MO) ordered and recieved them, and I am scheduled to have the clear front bra and black pearl badges installed next week. This is for an IS 250 AWD.
Will post pics next week. Am paying $750 for both items including installation.

Just wanted to get rid of as much of the shiny chrome on the back of the vehicle as possible. Think it will look nice with the SGM exterior color. Object was to try to debadge totally, but with post holes, that is nearly impossible. This will be the closest thing to getting the logos to disappear completely.

I have taken the badges off the my car and there are two small holes on each side. I didnt know this and so I took the emblems and switched the #'s and letters around and put them back on... Eventually i will have the holes filled... I am with you, I cant stand the cluttered look of the emblems...

Keep it on...you paid for it!
Keep it on...you paid for it!all I'm gonna say is
I broke my front grill trying to pry that big ugly "L" off the front of the car (I'M KIDDING !!!!)

i swear to god if someone debadge's their 2IS they are no better than the local HS ricer and should be shot on sight. at the minimum keep the L and IS and lose the rest if you MUST
now changing out the hideous front grill, i'm all for. black out, trd eventually, or the hot blitz grill.
