i was ging to debadge the car today and found out fast that there are holes underneath. thought id share with everyone before you guys find out like me.

 

How are they attached?

 

you should search, you would have found out without having to find out.

 

i thought they were like my 2nd gen gs where it was just double sided tape. on these ones, they are attatched using double sided tape but they also have hole for the emblem's little feet.

 

yup.
it's not a real problem though... just fill and paint after... I knew somone who did it and it looked flawless.

but why not have the badge? You just dislike?

 

lol 2 late for me, there's 5 holes underneath.

 

IMO i think that the car would look much better with just the "L" and nothing else. there is just too much going on back there for me.

 

even the gs 350 emblems have holes?

 

yeah, i remember posting on this topic a while ago... all u guys need to do is search...

 

I don't blame him for not searching. Its not something most people might have thought about. I asked this question back in December(I think) and found out before removing the badges.
I want them gone because I KNOW in a few years, all those badges is gonna have brown dirt in between the words becuase after every wash there will be just a bit of dirt I will miss.
And They shouldn't have used holes. Every hole is just another way of water finding its way in.

 

just a question whats the purpose of taking the emblems off. does it make the car looks better. im just curious

 

Agree.. nothing a little filler & paint won't solve

 

how much did the process cost? looks good!!!

 

I was originally quoted $350,then $250 when I did not respond right away.They took off the "L" by mistake,had to get me a new one and paid $225 total.

 

$25 for touchup paint and clear coat, $6 for tube of filler, $1 piece of 1200 sandpaper.. Results.. priceless
