I went the plastidip route as well and love how it goes with the Black of the car. Will try to post pics once I get the camera back.

This PlastiDip product is really working out well for members here. I've seen a few rides with it, and it gives anything you spray a nice matte effect. Especially with the emblems, it can create that shadow effect that I've seen. Very neat.

When I was searching my set, I found a legit eBay seller name "theautoguy" I had already bought the front emblem from a fellow emblem, so I purchased the rear "L", "Lexus", and "IS" for a set of three for $197.00 shipped to complete the look. I opted out of purchasing the "F" logo's because I wanted it to stand out from the rest of the car being dark. I probed him with many questions because I wanted it to match with my front "L" originally from Sewell perfectly. He explained to me that they are brand new OEM emblems that are stripped of the taping on the back to black chrome them, then brand new taping is applied. I am very pleased to say they are to this day holding up perfectly, normal wear from my daily driving, but no sagging from the tape or anything. The color matched perfectly with the one from Sewell. I also purchased a brand new Sewell grill from a fellow member to further complete the look. Good luck!
