You can get them from Sewell Lexus. Club Lexus members get a special discount too. Here is a link to the site: http://lexus.sewellparts.com/

To post in the classifieds you have to be a member for thirty days and have made at least thirty posts on the forums. Unless you can wait, Sewell Lexus or your local Lexus dealership would be your best bet. You can also PM aliga and see if he has an extra set.

If you have a set already and they need a little touch up, there are guys out there who can redo them relatively cheap. Just call a few local dealers and see if there is any in your area.

You also might want to check with local body shops and see if they have any extra emblems laying around. A body shop gave me a free set of brand new chrome emblems for my SC300.

Since were on the subject, is there any noticeable difference between the gold and silver edition cars? A guy at work asked if mine was gold or silver, I answered silver and he kinda sounded like "oh, well thats ok, silver isnt too bad". I honestly hate the gold emblems on ANY car..

^ Same here. I think gold emblems came on the premium edition. Not really sure what the difference is. Another option for the OP is to try any local junk yards to see if there are any laying around as well as try ebay. just search "SC300" and arrange it by lowest price. I cant post a link to that here.

I would say stick to chrome or if you have a white car, paint them black or platinum. We have a ES300 with a platinum package and the those badges look really goon on a white car. Would look kinda iffy on a black one if you ask me but thats a matter of preference.

oh, and PM Aliga
best of luck

There aren't any differences. It's more common for a gold package SC to have the heated seats and Nakamichi stereo, but those can also be found on a regular silver package SC.

My SC came with the gold package and it was an $1,000 option when the SC was brand new according to my records.
