There's nothing to understand except it's all personal preference.

My reasoning is, on oahu we only have Servco Lexus, everyone who has a lexus here got it all at the same place so why should i advertise the monopoly here.

I agree, but it still doesnt make sense to have a plate frame that duplicates the emblems..... maybe if the emblems were shaved off maybe.

Is_ron, it is totally serious........ OMFG. It looks fine, im just saying i have never understood it. But what looks worse is the people that have mercedes that have front mercedes plates that have the same emblem. Yours is pretty clean and descreate. No disrepect intended. Just a personal observation.

oh okay...

well whoever orders the license plate frame i have--i would rethink it if you have a system in the trunk. i got my system intalled 2 weeks ago and the plate rattles like i have king kong in the trunk because the bottom of the frame doesnt screw down. i dynamated everything and i still get the rattle.

i have a soloution....... i used 3m outdoor adhesive, or any double sided that is foam based or 3/16th thick. mount the plate to the frame then a few peices behind the plate to the car. It works..... i have done that to all my cars and no more rattle.

I dislike this frame. I think the old one with the dealer name on the bottom and "Lexus" on the top looks much more classy.
Yikes, that's the first time i've ever seen that style. Can't say that i'm a fan of that one bit. Unconventional.
