your best bet may be to measure your lexus emblems and then find some on ebay that are the same size. the pegs might not measure up though. you could sand em down and just use some emblem adhesive

Dont want to thread jack but.. will the griffin emblem fit right into the front bumper. I want it positioned the correct way, at a angle. Will I have to cover any holes or make new holes? Thanks

if you buy the front "griffin" emblem and it has the pins then it will install properly like a glove. if its the rear emblem you might have issues and have to cut the tabs and use double sided take to put it on.
to the OP...take off one of your badges and measure the distance between the three pins that hold the emblems in place. then get some toyota badges and see if they match.
if nothing works, get some 3m double sided tape and a sharp hobby knife. stick the double sided tape on the emblem and trim the excess tape so it not visible. after that clean the trunk/bumper with rubbing alcohol and use a hair drier or heat gun to warm up the paint and the tape on the emblem. this will assure proper adhesion.
you can go to junk yards and find a bunch of old toyotas, rip off the badges, and then try them til you find one that fits

Be careful here - I recently swapped my '92 front bar for a '97. Neither my '92 JZZ30 Red/chrome Soarer Griffin nor the UZZ40 Chrome/gold Soarer Griffin fitted the holes. I eventually used the UZZ40 Soarer badge, but had to use adhesive and tilt it a little more than I would have liked.
