1. How do you do it?

2. Can you put the badge back on?

You'll find that there are 3 washer grippy things, a pair of long nose pliers got them off easy peasy.

But Mrs Mop likes the (L) on the grill....

Hence why I want to know if I can put it back on again... :unsure:
Fargo
Well i think you should ceremoniously present her with the badge as a token of your lurrve :unsure:
Monster-Mat
yes it can be put back on
Parthiban
why do you want to take the L off? only looks right when cars lowered to the ground with some funky bodykit on and 19" chrome rims, cos then it doesnt look like a lexus anyway

or is that what you've done?
UKPulse
Yep - funky ones are better with the badge [b]off[/b]...

Nope.... just tempting to give the front a 'less cluttered' look...

The Lexus logo would appear to come on and off easy enough given the fastenings (perhaps called "grommets"?).

However, the more naff 'Sport' badge is apparently bonded on with the same plasticky resin stuff that costs the mesh. This would apparently tear the resin and leave a rectangular area uncoated if removed.

That's a more difficult problem :sad:

Yes, I looked at that Nige... and you can get the Sport badge off, but you will need to replace it with something.... :yawn:

Ian my good man, get that (L) off the front! It looks so much better...looks more aggresive, like the Lex is ready to eat some serious tarmac!! :D
