Default FRONT END EMBLEM or NO?

i just wanna take a poll on what i should do to my 97 front end, once converted? i bought the griffin a while back and thought it would look nice on my garnet SC one day. but i think after the 97 conversion i might wanna keep it a lexus or just keep it clean with nothing, kinda still confused?

My vote only goes out if you have a soarer, if not, leave it clean (ie no emblems).

IMO, the red soarer will blend in too much on Garnett, I'd leave it plain, esp. with the 97+ front..

I've been fighting this for months. I have an emblem I stick on the nose and look at, but never mount because I just don't like it as much with it on there.

I like the (L) up front. It's the only way to go.

on pre 97 the good old L is only way to go in my opion, but on 97+ it looks real good with nothing the grill gives it all it needs.

I like my L badge on the nose

The griffin emblem off a UZZ40 would look nice too (albeit a touch too big, imo).

quick question, on a 97+ bumper does the front L have holes drilled into the bumper or is just adhesive?

I always feel a car with no front emblem is always incomplete.

My subconcious tells me the car has been in a front end collision and it's finally back from the bodyshop.

My vote: Chrome emblem.
