Default I Want A Black Pearl Grill Surround...How Do We Get It???

Hey guys,

I saw one the users cars on here the other day with everything black pearl...wheels, grill surround and emblems and someone posted that you need a shop to do this to get it done...meaning that Lexus or Toyota don't make a black pearl grill surround. Anyone know for sure or the way to get this done??? Not willing to Plasti-Cheat!!!

I've never seen one, but that would be nice with the matching emblems.

You could paint it yourself using the same method for the DIY black pearl emblems in this post: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/aut...e-emblems.html

That thread doesnt look too bad...I'd just be nervous about the color's not matching the black pearl emblems.

I hate to insult anyone with Plasti-Emblems...I just had an awful experience with that "mod".

I'm gonna check L-Tuned...anyone got any other ideas???
