I thnk the grill looks great. Good job! The factory grill is OK but I think the "L" in the grill and on the trunk is way too big. I think it would look classier if they were small. Everyone seems to be making the grill logos huge though.

Took off the "LEXUS" and put a smaller "L" emblem instead... but I don't know whether I should go get the ginormous IS350 OEM emblem. What do you guys think?

I definitely think it needs a larger, chrome L in the center, because the whole grille is dark, so using a small, dark emblem just makes the grille area look like a dark vaccuum especially compared to the rest of your light car with chrome accents etc.

Look really good. I like it with just the "L" the lexus is just too big for the grill. Good job and congrats on the money savings!
