Red face emblems for $free.99 anyone?

i know this is a shot in the dark... but it never hurts to ask. So here it goes...

Some a****hole stole my rear "L" emblem today... So i was wondering if any of you guys have one laying around the house.... doesn't matter what color or condition. (just as long as its in one piece) and would like to donate it to a fellow team member...... I dont think they have to be model specific so i guess any "L" from any model, front or back would do.






any.........................one?

Someone broke the L off from my Lexus as well. I was EXUS for a while too. Interesting turn of events. I went out to lunch the next day, and someone took my spot when I got back from lunch (usually that doesnt happen). So I parked way away at the very last open spot in the lot. I stepped out, and stepped on something. I found my L. I guess the guy thought the L itself was useless and ditched it. Now I'm driving a LEXUS again, with a little break between where the L and E connect. but Bm, sorry dude, I have a "LEXUS" badge from an IS300 that I found lying on the side of the road, but that doesn't help I guess .

Those damn thieving idiots. I got one I believe. Where are you located? I'm near Hollywood/West LA. PM me and we can meet up

I'll trade it to you for a new bottle of Armor-All if you can get that

I was thinking...are you running on aftermarket wheels? If so, do you still have the stock wheels? You could pull an emblem off of the stock wheels if you aren't using them, and throw it on the car.

That will look idiotic as hell. You want him to put a tiny wheel emblem on his trunklid??? They're like a 1/3 of the size of the actual rear emblem.

Do you know what that will look like? You'll still be able to see the outline of the original emblem AROUND the now much smaller wheel emblem that's been placed on the trunk lid

Probably, but would it look as idiotic as driving an EXUS? You wouldn't be able to see the old outline if you could clean the area properly, you'd just have to deal with those pesky holes, which on second thought I guess would be a problem. I thought the wheel emblems for the stock 97+ were a bit larger than the old turbine wheel emblems.
