Hey guys, im new to the forum here and just have a quick question. How can I remove the rear emblems off of my IS? I think they're adhesive but not positive. Any methods that are tried and true?

use a hairdryer and blow at the emblems for about 15 minutes... then take floss and gently go between everything... after theyre off use an adhesive remover on ur car to take it off!
i would only take off the emblems if you are goin to put ALTEZZA on the back . otherwise your taking of the name Lexus. Its your car man. But yeah hair dryer and floss work.
i didnt use hairdryers and still came off.. but hairdryer makes it easier. Well but i put back my lexus logos on now. got tired of the JDM look, you will probably feel the same way too.
Hair dryer works great. If it is hott as hell like it is here in florida you do not even need a the hair dryer. I just used some fishing line to get behind the emblems and saw through the adhesive. Then once I was done taking them off I used adhesive remover (GOOF OFF) did not work very well so I tried Meguiars scratch remover and the worked awesome taking the adhesive off and it polished up the paint underneath.
I think it looks the best with just the "L" in teh center. Makes the whole back look really clean, without losing the Lexus identity.
