Ahhh... so my airbag emblem is not in the best shape and I can see the plastic under. What should I do? Just paint over it? I like how it's chrome.. should I try chrome vinyl wrap?

 

Post a pic to show how bad it is.

 

from what i remember on the GS forums, painting it or dealing with it are about the only options, or vinyl like you said.

they sell some airbag lexus chrome "L" on ebay, but they don't fit the airbags that came stock with it.

 

The chrome emblems they use inside the car isn't as strong as the exterior emblems.
I had such a hard time sanding the front bumper emblem to prep it for black paint I had to use a D/A sander to scuff the surface.

 

images posted.. it's a Toyota sign cause I drive a soarer, don't want to have people wondering why the back of my car has a toyota sign and the inside a lexus haha..

 

If that's the thing you're worried most about on your car, then....

Just keep it how it is. Looks fine.

 

I'm selling an OEM one in good condition in the general classifieds

 

I'm a perfectionist sometimes when it comes down to detail, right now there's a lot more things that I'm worried about before this steering wheel. I'd rather do something that can either cover it up / make it look better instead of leaving it as is, but thanks

I'm not going to buy another air bag for an emblem.. lol, not at that point. If I buy another wheel / airbag it will probably be the TRD wheel.

BY THE WAY, I can't actually use the air bag since the car never came with one.

 

Hmm.. I clicked the wrong classified ad, I found the airbag emblem you're posting, I'll think about it and pm you soon. Thanks

 

lol i hear that, even little things like that drive me crazy, i'm so vain I won't even drive my car if it's dirty lol, it's pollen season right now and i have to hit my car with a california duster before i pull out the driveway everytime. here in the south you can wash your car and 4 hrs later it's covered in yellowish/greenish pollen again during this time of year.

don't have any pics of mine with pollen, but this is what everyones car looks like when they get up in the morning, and it will look like this again by the time you get off work.

 

lol i just painted mine without sanding the chrome off. looks pretty good

 

Wow, you guys have it pretty bad.. lol

Got pics?

 

i ment the outside emblems:
