Default Rearranging "IS 250" ??

Okay, so the "S" and the "0" have studs - so i hear.

I was thinking about debadging, shaving down the studs, and rearranging the emblems in order to cover up the holes.

Maybe "2 _ IS" or "25 IS". I could even drive around like an idiot with "IS520"

Where EXACTLY is the stud on the "S" and the "0" ?? Are the two holes aligned? Does anyone have a backside photo of the emblem?

Just buy it out at the end or sell it yourself before the lease expires. That's my plan. haha My car blue books for a lot more than my "buy-out amount" is.

when I first bought my car the previous owner had rearranged the emblem to say N50...it was the 2 tilted sideways. but I thought it was DUMB!

There are 2 holes behind the emblems. One holding together the "IS" emblem and another one holding the "x50" emblem. Im not sure if you can rearrange them because theyre stuck together

Incorrect, sir. They're all separate emblems, only two are placed with a plastic stub, the others are only glued on.
