02GF74 - 18/3/08 at 11:41 AM

was sitting behind a Lexus at traffic lights and had an idea that the Lexus badge, flipped upside down would make a very nice 7 badge.

whaddya reckon?

by the way, it was an R reg and the alloy wheels were totally corroded, looked like bady sprayed silver paint bubbling but wasn't. though Lexus was meant to be top notch kwality jap car?

the locost method on obtaining one would involve a screw driver and a bit of prising just make sure the owner is not sitting in it first...

toyota and lexus wheel are terrible for corroding!!! have changed so many sets of wheels on warranty you wouldnt believe!

Better make sure my badges are well nailed on then, I fear a repeat of the beastie boy's and VW badges is comming.

Does look neat though, but Lexus and Locost are mutually exclusive terms, unless as whippy says.......

I had mine 3 months and they bubbled! But so did the windscreen surround after 2 years!

Great idea. You are a true locostbuilder

That’s a great idea all I need to do now is persuade my mate his Lexus badges are getting a bit scruffy and need replacing and I’ve got a Locost Lexus badge (legally)
