Default Questions about holes behind rear emblems.....

On my old 2006 IS250 I had to get the holes in my trunk filled where the IS250 and "Lexus" letters were on the trunk. Do the the new models still have holes there, I imagine so or else most people would just remove them since emblems are ugly.

Thanks for the input. I am going to remove them, but I do not want to take them off if holes are there until I am ready to take it to a body shop to have the filled and sprayed.

I hate when they do that. It's like they blackmail You to run advertisement for the car you drive.

For 2011+ cars in North America, the cars no longer have "LEXUS" emblems on the rear.

I actually like them, but to fill in the gap for "LEXUS" I just put the "F-Sport" emblem in its place.
