Wow, that looks pretty good for a rattle can job. I thought you had a shop paint it!

With regard to your original question, no emblem.

That actually looks really good for a spray can. Nice job!

Much better than the long F-Sport emblem.

Probably 3m on emblem and 3m on the back of the grill to sandwich the mesh...and wishful thinking that no one will swipe my sh#t.

So I finally had the time to finish the grill (wet sand, polish, bolt it together). Decided on a smaller lexus emblem...planning to darken the chrome with duplicolor shadow spray paint.

Out of curiosity, what made you decide on a smaller emblem? Did the larger emblem take up too much grille space?

I just wanted something smaller, the original one would fit just fine.
