Default advice

hey ok i need some input i got a black ls400 1992, blacked out tail lights and full muffler system, sounds great, i have a toyota emblem in the front but not one in the back becuase the holes are different and i do not want to really spend the money to plug the holes and get the trunk painted for an emblem so i want to get the "T" emblem that has the color background, to cover the holes, but i am going for a black theme for my car but the emblem is not made in black or carbon fiber, so the to other colors that there are is RED and WHITE what is your opinion?

Default keep searching

it has got to be out there. the supra emblums are black and gray.

if the make it for honda there has to be one toyota per thousand of hondas. you get my point.

and yeah stick with your theme. make it the wat you want.

I have a ls400. dark green looks black at night. with gray on bottom. gold package. but planning to go chrome. with fabulous emblems. to go with th kit of course.
