Gold Badging

[Tricky Dicky]

Hi everyone

I am thinking about gold badging and was wondering about where to get it done. Have asked Lexus Norwich 2 weeks ago and have had no reply from them, dont think they are interested, dont think much of them at all actually.

Had a look at the Midas web site, has anyone had there's done by them.

Also want the front side windows tinted, Tint R in Nottingham seems to be the place according to the posts anyone know somewhere a bit closer to Norwich.

Not too sure where you'd get the gold badges, but I expect someone will let you know very soon!

Please could you post your thoughts/experiences of your Lexus dealership here:

whoops... should have read post better

Midas are very good... probably the best youll find because at the end of the day they supply lexus with gold badges! Go direct mate.

had my IS de-badged and had the front and back lexus L from midas and it looks gorgeous and adds more mysterious look, plus if u get the windows done ppl wont know if its a sport or SE. i recommend them.

join gold and get a nice discount!!!

I remember a while ago in a national paper in a top 100 of "naff" -- a lexus with gold badges, sorry about this but i tend to agree!

I agree, but then again, sometimes it depends on the colour of the car, it'l suit a black car, but won't look good red or silver...

what colour is your car Tricky?

Agree with you both - looks good on darker cars - but personally don't like them....

Mmmmmmmm?

Nooooooope!!!

and Gold Badges on a Gold car, doesn't work for me....

[JOHNNY-BOY]

Not really my cup of tea either

[Tricky Dicky]

Thanks everyone

It looks as if the concencus is they are a bit naff. My car is Blue so i dont think it will look too bad but would really like to see a picture of one already done first.

Have been in touch with Midas and they have already replied telling me how to fit them and that they have them in stock, really helpful.

Still not made my mind up, cant be having a naff Lexus now can we

[ricky_is200]

Mitch, can you post a picture of your car showing the badges?

[Steve]

hmm the thread opened by Tricky Dicky is asking where to get them or buy them from... but it seems we have more posts about people disliking them and not to their taste.

How about going back to the orginal question?

[Mitch]

i aint got a digital camera mate or i would.

chris took the 2 pics of my car for me on his camera.

personnaly i dont car what u lot think bout gold badges so hahaha............................. LOL.

no seriously though i like them but agree that they look ******* on say a red or silver car. on blue and black yes i think there nice

[Monster-Mat]

[Mitch]

Can't say I go for Gold myself. It smacks of 'trying too hard'. I think it looks OK on bigger cars though.
