Took the front emblem off the Blitz CF grill
I simply prefer the cleaner look of a Lexus with either no front badge or a black pearl one. (now if I could just get to modifying the car to complete the damn look)
Here is a pic from a meet Sunday.....
Most non car people think I'm nuts taking the Lexus emblem off.
"Mike, why would you do that to a Lexus". Valid point I suppose?

^ looks good.
I always liked having the manufacturer spelled out in a grill like that.. For example, having a blacked out "LEXUS" emblem in the middle

It makes the car look unfinished. The big L is the final touch to the car, just so complimentary to it.

don't listen to what they have to say, it looks awesome. I would leave it the way it is because it is way cleaner.

With the L off the Blitz CF grill, I'll black out the windows' chrome trim pieces too. Maybe add dark color wheels to complete it.

I wonder how it would look if you paint the emblem black and put it back on.
Looks good though.
