Of course were not going to all agree with this... but if he wants it he should do it and not have us be the deciding factor, but this is definitely a funny thread!
I'm sure I'm getting one of the transformers emblems, just not sure if I want the black or red decepticon emblems. I haven't actually looked at the first few opinions in the poll, just the transformers ones to see which was winning. I opened the poll because my girlfriend was at work and I didn't want to work on things I actually should have. I'm not looking for approval from anyone, if I had all the money for the things I wanted to do to my car I would do the black pearl chrome emblems, auto contour kit, 6 speed and many other things. On a limited budget however I just want to have some fun and change things up on my car, if I end up not liking it, it's as easy as taking it off and putting something else on.

A subgun mounted internally to the front bumper, with a HUD aiming unit, I can see that.

Make it turn into a GM and in turn turn into a Transformer.

That way, a GM can finally become something better than a *****ty car

Seriously at the end of the day he (we) drive Toyota's with "L" emblems on them. If he wants to brand engineer his Lexus into Transformer just like Toyota's were brand engineered into Lexus' I say let him.

More Pics!

To prove that you're a fanboy. Why else? I deal with this all the time over on the Nissan boards...

Just because you swap a JDM motor into your USDM car doesn't make it a Soarer/Silvia/whatever. When the car was first released, it was sold as an SC300 here in the U.S. And that's all it will ever be; a modified SC300. And certainly not a Transformer...

Putting JDM badges on stuff is sooo fanboyish and pointless IMO. And to the 'drifter' that responded... Oi.... I left the Nissan boards to get away from guys like you...

Anyways, the SC300 is a luxury sports coupe. Improving its performance is a great idea. Treating it like some econo-box Civic rival is a fail of an idea.

Of course though... This is only my opinion. Do whatever you want with your car.

Edit: JDMmuscle, I see that you are an upstanding member on these boards and you have alot of cool flavor & styling. So, I certainly don't mean any disrespect. I just don't agree with certain styling trends and I stick on my guns on things like this.

Do it tastefully.. Make it match and look like it fits the car.
Don't get some ricey "Yellow" or something.
Do a Chrome Auto/Decept. or whatever.. Perhaps Black, Y'know..?
If it fits the theme of the car, it'll look good.
Its not the "Transformers" that matters.. Its the aesthetic.
You can make a car look cool with flowers on it, if its done right.

It's exactly what I'm looking for, I'm trying to figure out which one would look best on silver spruce metallic and smokey granite metallic to make it look like it's supposed to be there. I am also thinking of later on down the line to have some hidden police lights for shows like one of the is-fs at eos last year and get a loudspeaker with some voice overs programmed in. just in theory though.

Don't do it, you'll regret it later...a lexus is meant to be luxurious-not tacky. Keep it clean man, please?
