Now Ive seen a few different variations of the way people have the badging on their SCs and I just wanted to get a view of everyones different opinions as far as the badging looks. Just leave some feedback on what you prefer and why.

 

I'd keep stock maybe if at all do the griffon on the hood but i would not want to be a poser to those who have actually spent the money on a soarer.

 

I am a poser.


Soarer hood - stock badges on rear.

 

I say...None at all!

 

Looks weird without badges, no offense.
I'm about to badge it with the griffon, and
With my oem rear badges.

 

soarer on trunk, nothing else?

 

keepin it clean !

 

Just to expound on this thread a bit, is it really "poser" like to put those emblems on? I really thought it'd be much less social annoyance to say I have a Toyota than a Lexus (I generally don't like the whole "you have a WHAT?" reaction). On the other hand I CAN see how it would be almost depreciating toward the Soarer owners (who have a more powerful setup from the get-go). But what if the SC has been up'd? Turbo or otherwise, if the output was similar, is there some sort of "poser culture" that one could be concerned over?

It's not like taking an SC300 and putting "SC400" badge on, or a Firebird and slapping a TA symbol and dual exhaust on it, or a 2.5 Altima throwing a 3.5 on. (Sorry 'tangies, you just don't get any mention in my posts :P)

Bottom line is that they are so similar (especially if the Lexus is boosted some how), that what cultural lines are drawn?

i personally like the lexus on the front and rear with the sc badges..but thats just me

 

My car is JDM tyte yo! lol I have the Toyota/Soarer on the back with the griffon on the hood.

 

Front and rear I have the L's, Lexus emblem on the back (to be removed) and the factory 2.5GT-t guard emblems.

 

I was originally thinking of putting the griffon on the hood but CThompson made a good point about "posing"

 

dude, i swear after my poll on spoilers, i really wanted to start a poll on badging, lol you beat me to it, like by 6 days lol, but i guess black-outed badges look good, or debadge everything, or debadge everything except for the lexus L's sign

 

Even if the car is "boosted" like the 2jz-gte swap i am doing it still is the lexus left hand drive and not soarer right hand drive. Like when you see ohh wow dang it's a real soarer and then you see the driver on the left side and not right then it's just like ohh a sc300/400 my bad.

 

I think I may just go with a Toyota SC300 then
