Gold Emblems
Are gold emblems out of style?
We have a new Pebble Beach, Truffle Mica, that wifey thinks the gold emblems would look great on. I sort of agree. Will help accent the mica flecks in the paint. We got the gold license plate covers and they look good. But, I don't see the gold emblems too much anymore.
What's your opinion?

That's were I am going to get them from. About $180 for the whole car vs. $400 or more from dealer. Have communicated with one of the sellers and they say its about 1 1/2 hour job max for a novice. Dealer can do in 30 minutes. You just use a hair dryer to heat up the emblem held in place by tape, use a plastic putty knife and pop off - or use fishing line or floss.

Not worth the money!!! Gold emblem is out of style, looks tacky & too pretentious. It's already a luxury car & your just trying to make it look more expensive. Being subtle is best.

Funny!
That's a good one! I have to second that. The gold emblems are definitely out of favor. They would be good if you wanted your vehicle to age 10 years in just minutes. I used to like them, but you couldn't give them to me for free now.

When I got my RX300, I had gold emblems on them from the previous owner. I just couldn't get used to them, so about early 2004, I had my uncle remove them and go to badgeless rear along with spraypainting the front L to a silver color. It just looked too gaudy.
