Default Replacing Lexus Emblem with another...

Hey guys,

Do you think it would be strange if I remove my Lexus emblem and replace it with Carlsson?

Thanks

If you put the round carlsson it would look good. If your going to use the letters put those where it says aristo.

I got the round ones on my car The letter no........ theres just to many letters to put there. LOL

Maybe everyone else will say dont do it but its your car. all black GS300 shouldnt look the same.

It's just an emblem that says " Carlsson." Nevermind, I won't do it. Modding is a sickness...

Bryan, as a suggestion..Since you have the aristo center tail, maybe you can replace the emblem that says "lexus" on your trunk with the carlsson emblem..It would make people look twice...

That's what I had in mind, but I have to find out the cost of shaving that area..

Thanks

Yes, replacing the Lexus emblem with a Carlsson emblem would be strange. I think of Carlsson as a Mercedes tuner.

What next, a "Dunlop" emblem? Or "MagnaFlow?"

I was quoted $250 to fill the holes and re-paint the trunk lid for the LS.

As {-_-} posted ,as of January 2004 Carlsson does make rims for the JDM market, in particular the LS.
