Kudos for the effort, but honestly, I wouldn't put one on my car.
Not really feelin' the mis-matched fonts :P

I'm not sure what's allowed by the site and all, and if posting the website is allowed and such, but it would be nice if we could, that way other Lexus owners could find us. On the other hand, thiefs could find out what's in our cars too ><!

It's not that I don't like the new designs but I kinda prefer the old ones (plus im thinking how they would look on the car/where/the size).
thanks for all the effort though ubernoob.
hopefully we can get one settled on soon and get these made (anyone actually know how/where/price?)

I like this one

Maybe I'm in the minority on this next point, but I was actually more in favor of the vinyl that was more of a bar for the top of the rear/front window. Nothing super obnoxious like the "ACURA" ones, but maybe takes up 1/3 of the glass and is maybe 4" - 6" tall.

I was thinking of the ones you have on your car now...version 1 or whatever...BUT since we can't do that, then this will have to do

I don't mind the 'CL'...but the pacific NW clublexus is just too plain...can we stretch the CL a bit to make it sleeker?

haha Kudos Dave...I like the shape of the CL...and after looking at the Hawaii stickers, I think it's better not to have any lettering inside C and L...and have a better font for pacific northwest...but I think your on to something here

I'll let the WA & OR people know, they may have some insights too

I like that last one ... I'm ok w. lettering inside the C & L, I'm thinking it doesn't have to be cut through letters, but rather the opposing color on top of the original (i.e. black lettering on a white decal)
