IS200 Emblem was stolen too...
Some j@ck@*** ripped it off our IS200 emblem a long time ago in Hong Kong. If we were to check the security cameras (was in a parking garage), we would have to file a police report (or so they said). These people are just dumb...

Where in PA, I go to school in PA and thats where I had my front emblem stolen a few months ago, most frustrating experience
I'd say go on ebay and find someone selling a whole set for any lexus that has the number 3 in it (ie 330, 350, 430, etc). I'd bet they're all the same format (assuming that the model had separate numbers)

I just washed my IS250 Saturday evening and didn't drive anywhere after that. Had it parked in the open garage of our townhouse. Then today when I was backing out of my stall, my wife motioned me to stop and come outside to the trunk. 
Someone popped the "L" emblem off my trunk. Ain't that a B!#@H!! Not only that but there are some dings in the paint where they pryed it off. What the hell are they gonna do with the symbol?! 
Anyone got any suggestions on how to keep the emblem put after I get the new one. Any way to thread the pegs of the emblem and wrench them down?

Reminds me of the 60's when the Mustang Emblems were stolen. They made great belty buckles. Hard to envision the Lexus emblem as a belt buckle.
Didn't your back up camera record the guy on the Lexus security system?

Same reason guys used to do panty raids. It's just a trophy. They didn't wear the confiscated panties, and they aren't going to use the stolen 'L' emblem. 
As we grew up we preferred the panties ON the girls, just as the guys who steal the emblems will eventually prefer the car the emblem is attached to. Personally, I prefer the panty caper.
