Anyone Rebadge Their LS430 as Toyota Celsior? Source for parts?
For those of you that have rebadged your LS430 as a toyota, I'd be curious where your sourced parts? I'd like to not spend several hundred dollars, but if I can swap the front and rear L emblem for the T for less than $200 I'd be happy with that.
Would love recommendations on source, and photos of anyone who has already done it!

It's a bit complicated. Beyond the unexplicable reasons, however, I would say it represents me well to buy a product that represents such a high level of quality, while de-emphasizing the status aspect of it. I'm not flashy, I'm not a VIP, but I always prefer to invest in quality.

Nothing. If you want to do this you will need to remove the "Lexus" emblem from the left side rear and fill the holes. Also the "Celsior" emblems tabs do not line up with the "LS430" emblems tabs so you would need to fill in those hole and either brake off the tabs or drill new ones.

One of the guys in the LS400 subforum did the complete conversion, he said one of the hardest parts to obtain was the Toyota Celsior badged airbag.
The car looked sweet when the conversion was complete, he was extremely thorough.

I just did a Celsior badge and the emblem holes don't fit exact, but the double sided tape around the word does cover up the peg hole that is not covered. I kept the rest as is.

Time to put your money where your mouth is.....if you want to "invest in quality" and do everything CORRECTLY, you will also need to buy four new door sills that read "CELSIOR" on them. Currently, your door sills read "LEXUS".

That said, those look sharp, so I probably would do that. I just haven't found a solution for the Lexus badge short of doing bodywork.
