WANTED Badges

I have to display my ignorance and ask... why are the badges called KLexus? I love the look. Do a lot of owners change the "Kia" the this?

Because if you look at it quickly, it kinda looks like a Lexus logo.

I must be dense. Do you want it to look like a Lexus? Why? My wife has a Lexus.

Yes, lots of owners wanted the vintage look and they changed/change/will change theirs to that look. Telly already turn heads. With the k vintage logo, it turns heads now to break necks lol. Seriously, I have an SX and I changed mine, love the distinctive look. Whether ppl think it’s a Lexus, I don’t care. I did it to make my car unique with Kia vintage logo. Do it if you want to, your Telly will love it.

Understood. Is there two types? An over lay and one that the original KIA badge has to be taken off and replaced with the KLexus?

Yes, Front and back badges are to be removed. Easiest to remove is the front, back badge is definitely the most delicate to remove because you can nip your paint trying to. I taped around the edges with some electrical tapes ( some ppl used paint tape) to protect the paint and used my wife’s hair blower to loosen the glue under it before I could remove it. There are few tutorials on YouTube to help. The overlay are the steering wheel, the tires badges.
