Well, I took all the letters off of the Scepter panel and brought my car in for paint. Its been out for about 3-4 weeks now, but when I went into my trunk to get allthe Scepter letters, I was missing a fucking E
Zoni, I dont know if you do this kind of thing or use CAD, but I need it replicated as well as my scuffed up R
If anyone knows of any local shops that do this and you can help me out, please let me know!

That's a webpage that lets you make your own emblems, btu I doubt it woyuld be any help to you since the font is different.
your best bet would be to call a sign shop. it will be costly to make 1 letter or just a few letters, but this is what they specialize in. if they dont do it in their shop, they can sub it out to any number of vendors who do. i guess this goes to anyone who wants scepter letters for their gen 3.5 (BTW, i work as a signmaker )
check out a machine shop that can do this custom cnc milling job, bring them the extra letter, have them make a duplicate. it will prolly cost you some bucks for setup, but i know you have the cash to spread around.
how did you get an extra "R"? that's wierd, anyway that sucks dude, i feel for ya, it sucks that something soooo small can mess you up real bad, i hope everything works out man, however you go about doing it
you may also see about looking at other toyota ot lexus car emblmes to see if they somehow match up, it's likely, but it's an option to look for, maybe the "E" from an ES os something it's worth checking into
goodluck!

Well, my R is only scuffed up. The E is the one I have a spare of. I'm probably going to take my whole trunk apart and back seat out tonight to look more. I searched Yahoo and found one place that will do it, but I haven't got a reply yet. Those places above said they can't do it
I went to the shop today and asked the guy if he'd seen them, since they were in the tray with the bolts for the panel. He said he saw them, but didn't touch them. I believe him, but its hard for a letter to pop out of the tray and slide anywhere in my trunk. But also he has no reason to take it...dammit I'm pissed
Pheeew! After rewiring my subs and cleaning out the whole trunk, I found it on the opposite side, under the jack. Weird how it popped out the tray, went under the interior and ended up there
