Default Where to buy IS250 emblem?

I just purchased the lx-mode grill from ebay but it doesn't come with an emblem. Does anyone know where I can purchase a front grill emblem with mounting screws? Most of the emblems I found use adhesive.

Mounting screws eh? Gunna be a toughy. Why not just use the adhesive? It works... that's what the factory uses no?

The factory grill have clips that attaches to the emblem. I don't think adhesive by itself will be able to hold it and it can easily be stolen if not mounted properly.

The 3M tape holds all the emblems in the back yes?

And your worried about your emblem being stolen? Where do you live

That's not true. The factory grill has alignment holes that match with pins on the emblem to assure that it's is positioned correctly, but the only thing holding it on is adhesive. Of course on the factory grill a flat mounting surface is molded in, unlike the LX-mode grill.

I think you need to buy their emblem since it probably has a mounting plate of some kind although I don't really like the emblem on LX-Mode.
