Default Gold Grill

Seems like a lot of people on here wanna remove their factory gold emblems on the trunk or the grill.
I on the other hand have always liked gold and the whole lowrider Cadillac thing with gold everywhere.
Since I bought the car two years ago i've been craving a gold grill and gold emblems on my car.

I actually managed to find a 24k gold plated facelift grill on eBay last week and thought that I should share it with you guys to see if there is anyone else who can appreciate this stuff

Would be doep on black Gs with matching wheels, or just matching dishes! Very traditional Lexus, like the keys.... Doubt its gold under the the grey coating on the center though.
lol St. Louis came to mind when I saw the title of the thread.

Not my style, but I can appreciate it though. However, like nelson said. If dont right, it can definitely look sweet.

I've got a dark blue pearl paint (8L4, Atlantis Blue Mica).
So I think that the contrast between the two will actually work.
I'll upload more pics when it's been mounted.

I can dig it!

I've always thought that a gold package GS or LS with some matching gold plated wheels (not wires, though) would be pretty sweet. I'd probably do it on my car if I found the right wheels for the right price...
