Filthy bastard
The “L” is on.
It was a pretty simple process. I scraped away all the old glue with a razor blade off the badge, and then used a clear silicone used for interior glazing for application. I didn’t need to measure this or template that, as the dirt ring from the previous badge was visible on the hatch.
Scrape-scrape-scrape...
I see you!
However, I’ll have to stare from a distance and not crammed in the back of my small garage. I don’t know if I like it. I feel like it would almost look better black or maybe red? Or, if I keep it chrome, I would need to put the “IS 300" and “LEXUS” badges on to compliment it. Maybe it would look better id the car wasn’t filthy. I’ll have to ponder this for a bit.
Nonetheless: progress continues!

What we need is chrome “Oppo” badges to add that touch of class. And also to really confuse people.

Badges? Do you need dos stinkin’ badges?!

For the peasants maybe. The higher ups should get gold oppo badges. Apply within. Only 19.99 per month.

Even the most “higher up” of us are still cheap bastards. A subscription model would never work.

Did you use a heat gun or were you able to just pop it off? (Asking for a friend...)

I didn’t pop it off; I bought the car with no badges and got some online last week.

Black pearl (center) would look good too.

Are you an interior glazier?

No, my scrawny ass couldn’t handle that kind of labor.

Damn. I figured it was a long shot, you wouldn’t make it that obvious.

Single center logo is the way to go (I’m getting rid of the vt emblem soon

Found a sportkrass on CL, sent it to the fiance and suggested she might like it. Response: Oooh! I love that! I’d drive one.

i debadged my car, and thought the same that it was too blank. so i kept all the words off and put the single logo back on. a candy red was a nice addition on the chrome badge

Just did it the other day when I was bored and it was a sloppy job but honestly looks good. I really like black pearl too but they’re probably expensive like the Lexus ones.
