Man your car looked really nice. I don't even like chrome rims because they typically look traders village style, but your car really really looked nice. That is the most sporty looking LS 460 I have seen

You were exiting mockingbird turning towards smu.

Doubt you'll see this, but your car looked great.

Interesting sighting, I have been seeing more and more LS 460s lately (counted 8 yesterday in local driving), but not yet seen a debadged LS 460...come to think of it, almost never seen a debadged LS of any kind. With the LS 460 that might change.

I might see one or two a day, but typically they are older real estate looking women driving them. This one was sporty as i've ever seen an LS look. Maybe I should browse through some of the pics on this forum to see what else catches my eye.

Love the stance of both the 460 and 460L Great looking cars.

I see more LS than S-class and 7 series combined. I guess its that the LS is alot more practical and user friendly.

Molexus you should have seen this one. It was sick. lowered but not too much, and it looked so sporty. I am now a big fan of the LS460.

Mo, I spotted 2x's last week and once today. My friend said it's this dude that lives at the monderin off haskell and 75. Which explains why i see it a lot because that is where I work. Here's some pics I snapped today with my crappy cell phone. It's really a nice LS.

Anyone know if the "Lexus" and "LS460" badges have holes behind them?? I'm thinking of de-badging, but not if there are holes to fill.

No holes. Pull off with fingernail, slow, steady pull. Mine had that tacky like glue they use on credit card advertisments you recieve in the mail. No breakage, no mess.

If you can get it off with your fingernail, go right ahead, but I doubt everyone would have that kind of luck. If that doesn't work, try this. Take some Berkley Fireline and work it back and forth gently between the badging and deck. Use some high quality cleaner/wax to remove any left over tacky glue if some stuck to the paint.
