Looks alright, would have to see it on the car itself. Who really cares what we think.

All that matters is if you like it. You're the one driving the car.

Damn G1 Android phone, ****ty quality. the emblem has like 2 pole shapes things (like screws) on the side, I went to a shop they made some small V shaped metal pieces and tightened on the mesh.

You know I would'nt be bummed if the peeps here on the forum agree or not...if you like how it looked and you made all the effort to make this..then sport it on your car just how you like it...everyone has different taste and maybe a lot here dont care for the "lexus" word in the middle..but if you like it then WTF go for it..modding to seperate yourself from the norm..is what its about...and you asked for opinions...that should'nt make it or break it.
