Default RCF front grill emblem

I want to try a couple of ideas out on the front grill emblems which entails taking several apart.
i need the actual Lexus part number of the badge in the middle of the grill, as well as any ideas for ordering factory quality badges online.
My local lexus dealers parts dept wasn't being very helpful with my inquiries!
thank you for any assistance. I will post any progress if i can accomplish my goals!

Are you aware that the front L emblem houses the radar/laser for the cruise control? Might be a bit tricky trying to modify that......but that's my assumption....

Thank you, I did not know that. It may very well affect what I have in mind!
Back to the drawing board.
Anybody have the part number?

Damn it does? I thought the radar was located by the rear view mirror?

That's what I thought.
now I have to go out and look it over much closer. I didn't see any wires or attachments on the back side with my initial, cursory inspection.

No other reason Lexus would charge $280 for an emblem......

im pretty sure if it was true it would be way more than $280.
lexus parts even the smallest are pretty pricey.

Thank you for that info, I didn't think she had any wires running to that emblem. No pcs on her car. I don't want any machine deciding when to hit the brakes without my direct instructions!!!
now to find some badges at a reasonable expense!
Thanks again, very helpful!

Does anybody know if tinting the front emblem if I've got Pre Collision be an issue? My guess is that it wouldn't be a problem as it would just be a window tinting film to darken it, but I wanted to see if anybody had any thoughts on the matter.

Thanks!

The shop that did my ppf on the car put the same film on the emblem and my pre collision system still works just fine
