Default Emblems got stolen!!!!!!!!!

Hi guys!

Some PUNK decided to mass with my emblems

Now I need a new set of emblems for the trunk. Including the (LEXUS) and (IS 250 AWD).
Anyone have an idea where to get them? ebay only sell 24KT gold ones for 250 bucks
Or should I go through my dealer? which I don't really want to, they are usually more expensive.
I don't see it on sewell also, did I miss it?!


Thanks for any suggestions!

It happens, however in the future, make sure you DON'T superglue the emblem onto your trunk. It's better to have the bastard easily steal it than to cause a crap ton of damage without stealing it,

They just took it off for some reason

Right now I just white vinyl to cover the holes and polish the surroundings so that the paint matches. I will go take a picture of the "finish" product right now.

I would just get back the orignal emblems and put them in since they have the matching studs to go into the holes.

I think that "someone" stole it because he/she has the same car, because he/she cause no damage and I think the emblems are still in good shape

I thought of removing the emblems anyways, but can't think of a solution to fill the holes.

You can actually see that the color is not matching very well from a close distance

If I'm gonna go emblem-less, I want to do it right or else I will go back to buying emblems

I think the "SO SORY" has something to do with it lol!

Yes, that's why I said might as well get a new set of emblems and put it back in the car therefore it will be normal again.

Yeah I know the feeling bro. Somebody snatched my Wald wing off my car at the movie theatre 2 weeks ago. I molded that bad boy this time around. They gonna have to rip the whole damn trunk off now .

Yours look good with no emblems.
