so about a month ago I painted my emblems black. thought I'd post some photos and I have a few photos for a somewhat DIY if you'd like me to post those too let me know. please excuse my dirty car :\






I should probably get some close ups haha. It blends really well and I love the look. I'm not sure if I'm going to do the lexus logo yet. I kind of like how the chrome circle around the L matches the lip on my wheels and the chrome trim around the windows.. kind of a uniform look? what do you think?

Black out that Lexus logo.

It's unbalanced. Looks like you forgot to paint it. From the rear view, you can't even see the chrome trim on your windows for wheel lips to accent it...

close up.. i would paint it... but when looking at it from far away in the 2nd to last picture, it looks fine to me.

post a DIY please. im thinking about doing this, but i dont wanna pay anyone to do it for me. im gonna leave the L unpainted tho.

your smoked taillights look kinda light.. howd u smoke it?

I see where you were going with it... leave the L emblem silver, makes it less crowded. But, as others have said, it also looks like you just forgot to paint it.

Better to leave the L unpainted, I think, so you won't be rear-ended by a gawker trying to figure out what the car is.

another reason i didn't paint it hahaha, not really the whole rear-end part but you get the idea. I like the fact that you can really still tell it's a lexus even if you've never seen it before.

i admit though, the black on black L looks really sexy, maybe this weekend..

Looks great. Glad it turned out for you.

I wonder how color matched emblems would look.
