Lexus Badges for Scion
I want Lexus badges for my scion xB. I've checked ebay and they either don't have a full set or they're really expensive. I would like to know where I could get Lexus badges cheaper or if you think I should just get vinyl Lexus decals (that look like the emblems) and use those instead.
If I did the vinyl decals, I could do something clever like "Bx300" or something like that.
BTW: don't give me b/s about "rebadging is wrong" or anything like that. Its my decision to change it. My xB has been debadged since I bought it and I'm really annoyed of people asking me what it is. I think it'd be cool to say "It's a Lexus"
Lexus is Toyota. Toyota is Scion. Scion is Lexus.

You don't drive a Lexus, so stop acting like you do.

IN OTHER WORDS, please keep your negative comments to yourself. Only post here if you can tell me where to get Lexus badges.

ebay is about as cheap as you'll get other than a junker.

Junkyard is a good idea!
If I cant find any good ones there, I found vinyl ones at decalkits.com $20 gets you a full set.
Thanks, I appreciate your ideas.

he says not to give him any B.S, about it and the very first two posts do that.... you could just choke people sometimes.
But I digress.... where I find the irony in the whole thing is, what makes this 'mod' different/better/worse what rebadging an xB with bB or xA with ist badges??? And NO, they AREN'T the same vehicle - the xA/xB and the ist/bB's only LOOK the same. So... if you got 'bB' on the back of the box, in my book - you're just as big of a poser as someone with a Lexus "L" and a "bX300"
He's not looking for Mercedes stars for the grille - I don't think I'd sport Lexus badges - but it is in the same family at least - But I guess if you have a Toyota Altezza in Japan and swap on some Lexus and "IS300" badges... you're probably a poser over there then....
Get off his ___.

thank you windowtint
I understand why ppl would be annoyed, I myself don't agree with such things as rebadging...but Scion to Lexus is a hell of alot better than something really stupid like Scion to Ferarri.

Loser or not it's his mod, wether I like it or not doesn't matter in the scheme of things. It only needs to make sense to him.

What I find funny about the rebadge issue is that in Japan they are exchanging the Toyota badge for a Scion badge.
