a new home for the LEXUS
hey guys
just wanted to share something i did a few weeks ago, i dunno if anyone else has done it or posted about it before
well, after looking at my friends HSV GTS (australian car, kinda like the Pontiac G8's in the US)
i did this to my IS250
since i'd already debadged the rear, i had the left over badges
i might be painting them matte black and see how they turn out cause i think they stand out too much
also, does anyone have pics of the "L" on the rear and front of a SGM 2IS that are painted black?
thanks!

It looks really out of place.
It might look better if sprayed black, but that would be because it stands out less and blends into the grille more, making it less visible and probably defeating the purpose of badging it at all. Having extra pieces does not obligate you to use them
Your paint-matched grille surround looks good though !
