Looks just like mine that I got a little while ago...I had my rear SC300 emblem shaved when I had my car repainted. I'm going to have the front emblem as well as the rear Lexus emblem shaved soon...the trunk and the front bumper needs to be redone anyways...the body shop messed up the first time around

Where did you get yours and how much did you pay? I'm kinda scared to ask, cuz I paid a lot...a friend from Japan got it for me from a dealer

Howiedoit....I paid $75 for the lion and $40 or $45 for the "SOARER" emblem. I have a big problem though and that is the peg holes that will be left from the "SC400" emblem and the "LEXUS" and the "L" emblem when I take those off. I want to fiberglass the holes in and paint over it but I have the lexus three-staged pearl white paint and for example the cheapest I can get my entire car painted for is $3000. Well thatis my best estimate so far and i wasn't planning on spending more than 500 on just covering up the holes and repainting that back part of the car. Later, Adam

Hey...i saw your other post...good luck...

when I had my car repainted, I asked the body shop guy to shave the SC emblem because I was anticipating the soarer emblem. But since my car is going back in the shop, i'm gonna ask to have the other emblems done. good luck with your paint stuff...sucks to have a paint job that costs so much

Thumbs up Leather Soarer Logo!!!

I asked the folks at Leatherseats.com to come up with a Soarer logo for my new leather.......

Here's what they came up with........the logo will be on the front seats just below the head rest......now this might be a bit much for the SC400 purists but I couldn't resist it

The leather is two tone, willow and jade and with the logo it will look awesome (I hope)

I like It gives it an exotic look like vette, ferrari's and those cars have. I think.

You'll love those badges Adam!

Here's some JDM parts I got for my SC400. I'm pretty sure I'm the only one with this stuff in So. Cal. If anyone else has them too, post a reply! I'd love to see your rides!

Keep the SC400 wordmakr and just glue the Soarer wordmark to the bare right side.

I've had my rear SOARER badge on my car for about a year now.

For the sake of making you car look JDM, please don't use the SC400, SC300 along with the SOARER word on your car =)

Oh yeah, whoever wanted a GRIFFIN airbag like mine, PM me or email me at tony@lexussc400.com if you want it. I'll be getting one in grey.

Tony

hmmmmm - if you really want the JDM look then the middle rear Lexus L and big L on the engine will have to go too I'm afraid.
Here is a stock JDM '32 with wiper, camera, stock rims and stock looking (but larger) stainless tips and mufflers.

For the front the Lion goes a bit lower than the previous photo, and a big Toyota badge for the engine.
