They sell carbon fiber emblems. With those holes there where the emblem is supposed to mount it just looks tacky

Or you could carbon fiber the chrome bezel and put the chrome L back on.

I got the same "F-sport" grill and am awaiting arrival of my special emblem order from Lexus. It is top secret...but I'll end up posting pics though once it all comes in.

Whatever it is you do just put the "L" back on. Looks like someone stole your emblem right now.

I think I'm gonna put my chrome badge over this CF overlay because its not matching my chrome grille surround. Either that or color match the grille surround SGM.

I think the black pearl emblem matches very nicely with the grill
