Default SC Badges

I used the search tool just to clear that up before hell is raised lol

and all of the debadging was on GS and IS cars, a few SC ones that only had to do with what color badge they should get.

I went out to Autozone today and got some Chrome / Reflective Silver Spray Paint and some clear auto glue that i was planning on using on my Gold badges on my Black SC 400

Im getting black rims with a machined lip or just chrome rims so i figured it would match better.

Now heres the question...

Are there holes in the SC holding it on, or is there adhesive making it stay on, and how should i go about removing it and reapplying it?



Or better yet is this a dumb idea all together and should i just attempt to trade for chrome emblems?



thanks in advance,
Chase

there are 2 holes for the lexus emblem, 3 for the L, and none if your sc300 badge is on the right side and 2 (i think) on the bumper if your sc300 badge is there in the center. and all of them are held on with 3m mounting tape

Buy new emblems!
I ordered all new chrome emblems from these guys down in Dallas and they look FANTASTIC! The local dealership only had gold. If you're going to do something, particularly for looks, do it right and get actual chrome emblems.
