445187 Posted June 20, 2004 Posted June 20, 2004 I have noticed several LS400's in my area that don't have the ls400 badge on the trunk. I am in the process of removing my emblems (for style reasons), but the ones I have seen are only missing the ls400, the people driving them do NOT lloklike people that would remove emblems for any reason & if they did it was a professional job, no noticable touch up to the holes that would have been left behind. Is this the "coach" model? If so & even if it isn't, what is a "coach" model.
jbarhorst2 Posted June 20, 2004 Posted June 20, 2004 I don't believe you will have holes left behind. I think all emblems are held on with a pressure sensitive adhesive backed foam. Once you remove it, just get rid of the adhesive that is left behind and re-wax the area well.
wandawoods Posted June 20, 2004 Posted June 20, 2004 stock gen I (90~94) LS400 did not come with 'LS400' emblem from factory, only the 'L' in oval and 'LEXUS'.
Sbelangia Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 there are holes behind the 'L' and 'LEXUS' emblems. I just got finished painting mine and almost filled them in but decided not to.

445187 Posted June 23, 2004 Author Posted June 23, 2004 There are also holes behind the ls & 400 on my 95
TexasLexus94 Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 Check out Gallery pic #400 that shows my '94 LS with the LS 400 emblem on the right rear. It may look like the emblem is out of level or position, but actually the problem is that the "4" in 400 is actually the same size as the "Lexus" emblem letters, while the remainder of the letters are slightly smaller. So it took a conference between myself and several neighbors to determine the correct position for the "LS 400" emblem. Curiously, you can't use a level for the emblem setting-who says you car is parked on level ground? And thanks to member 445187 for the emblem-It looks great after replating.
