Did you use a heat gun to remove the emblems or did you just pry them off? Floss method?

I just pried them off using the provided Lexus pry-off tool. I did not think to use the floss method. That might have made things easier for the "L" emblems.

I was tempted to get IS250 badges. Ultimate sleeper

Yeah. My car is an 06, so the adhesive was on there really good.

The S and the 0 have pegs. IMO, I wished all of them had pegs. That would have made things a lot easier.
