I for whatever drivers want to do with their cars. Personalization is how we distinguish ourselves.

Default Hot or Not?: These New Badges on This 2008 Lexus LS

Hot or Not?: These New Badges on This 2008 Lexus LS



The Lexus badge says a lot of things to buyers of the brand. Among other things, it announces, "This is a quality automobile that you can rely on for years of reliable service and luxurious travel."

As long as you don't forget to put an 'i' somewhere - not for "intelligent" (as in VVT-i), but for "injected", as was done back in the day - that would work.

Looks OK. But you know what they say: "Those than mind don't matter and those that matter don't mind".

^^^^
lmao

When I bought it, my Isf was missing the "IS" badge from it's trunk. I replaced it with a similar, slightly smaller V8 badge from an early 2000-something Landcruiser. I recall there were 2 versions available.

As far as great badges go, to me nothing tops the following (OEM on the rear & side glass of certain JDM SW20 MR2s):

"A Man in Dandism"

Pretty much says it all.

Many of you will think it's too much or out of place. I get it. I like it and so far comments from friends and coworkers is positive. Many people think our cars are six bangers.
I got my 3 from amazon today, $22. They look good to me on the car. 10 minuites to put them on. It was easy I didnt even have to decide where to mount them. Just followed your lead. Thanks for the tip. I'd post a pic but it would look exactly like yours anyway.

I found them for half that but you had to wait for them to ship from China. I got them from a reseller who made his cut.

My wife was laughing at me when I opened the UPS box. Later I called her on my way to the poolhall to tell her how much more power it had now.
