The placement of the V8 emblem is the same place where Mercedes places the V12 Badge on the W140 S600.

Not sure the Benz look-a-like does it for me. Maybe if Benz hadn't done that in recent history. Just my 0.02

Nice car...hard to find them with the PCS!! In my opinion that logo would look a lot better if you had tuck on the fender behind the front wheels (above the chrome strip).

thanks, and in japan there are a lot of different types of vehicles (mostly sedans) that place small badges in this location. on my last gs400 i had the v8 emblems where you are describing:



yes i like the v12 placements emblems on the s600, it always made me droll when i would see one drive by (as rare as it was)...

Congrats on the LS sojah

For one thing, I think the emblem is so out of place considering there's no kit and wheels, but that WALD picture does look good though.

For a minute, I thought your new mod was the datasystem and you set it on HIGH. Wow, never realize stock height was so high

thanks gs3tek,
i heard someone say once that the UL sits higher stock than a non UL. i am not sure if this is correct or not though. yeah i may just take off the v8 emblems until i get a kit at least... then slap them motha suckas back on.
