Got it as a bundle. I feel like Frank off American Pickers

Totally de-badged the rear and replaced with a single black textured Skoda badge. Swapped front grille for chromeless, badgeless, black honeycomb grille.

I passed a yellow Lamborghini today. I think he was jealous.

Got wheels colour-changed to satin black. I know some people don't like the black on black look, but I am not one of them.

Cosmetically all that's left is lowering it and getting the tint on the rear window sorted out.

Was it easy to do? And how do you do the VRS badge to keep the red and green visible?

Very Easy. I followed this DIY DIY - Matte Black Emblems - Plastidip, no emblem removal required! - Club Lexus Forums

As for the vrs badge i cut a small piece of masking tape and placed it over the green and red section and cut the plasti dip coating with a scapel to be able to peel the masking tape away.
