Arrow darker emblems?

I saw a black IS350 on the showroom floor that had some upgraded Lexus wheels that were sort of a gunmetal or charcoal color...

Also, it had darker badging added from the dealership (front L emblem, rear L, "Lexus," and "IS350"). I think it was over $400 for the new badging, but it did make the car look great, especially with the darker wheels.

Anyone have a suggestion to where I can buy new badging from another site cheaper???

I checked lexus-parts.com, but they only had "Lexus" and "IS 350" and no main L emblems. They were also both in the factory silver chrome finish. If anyone has any other leads I would appreciate it! I really want the darker gunmetal type emblems to match the car!

Thanks...

Lexus-parts.com used to carry them. I'm not sure why they're no longer available.

I have black pearl emblems from lexus-parts.com, I'd email them and ask if they still carry them.

I ordered mine last week and they just came in the mail today. They look great. I am not sure why you are getting the run around. I had a very good experience with them.

I just noticed Sewell / Lexus-parts has a group buy on them right now for $228 for the OEM Lexus black pearl kit (among other stuff)! Looks like you also get an additional $50 off if you chose to turn in your old emblems for a core credit.
