IS F mirrors are pretty much the same as the 06-08 IS250 and IS350. They are larger than the 09-13 IS250 and IS350 mirrors (which are also equipped with turn signals).

I don't think the mirror covers will fit the IS-F. The mirrors on the F are like the 09+ mirrors but without the turn signals. They aren't as tall but they are wider than the 06-08 ISX50.

To answer the OP, I've driven an ISF, and I agree - I'm pretty sure ISF mirrors are smaller than ISX50 06-08 mirrors.

I just bought an 08' ISF coming off a 09' IS350 (and my sister used to own a 2006 IS350). The ISF mirrors are smaller than the 06-08 ISx50 cars but bigger than the 2009 and up mirrors.. so if those carbon fiber pieces are just covers then sorry, they won't fit.

When you pilot your ISF, you won't care what mirrors it has

I was just curious about if my cf mirror was worth keeping , if it was same size as isf . Guess not & i already sold them :-)
