No F-Sport emblem on back
Is anyone else annoyed by the fact that the F-Sports don't have an emblem on the back? I just think it would give the car just that added little "IT" factor that you're paying for anyways. I'd much prefer on the back over the side, but maybe I'm just being petty lol

I just use this license plate: http://www.thelexuscollection.com/ec...sortId=default
Blends nicely with the Black Pearl emblems since they seem to be from the same material. Pricey, yes but I personally like the look of it.

Alius - your link asks for login information to the website (thelexuscollection.com). Do you think that you could attach the picture here or simply upload it to a 3rd party host and link us?

I go back and forth on it, personally. Sometimes I wish there was an identifying factor back there, but then I see when others have added one and I think it looks horrible.
At the end of the day, what's the point? F Sport doesn't really make the car faster or anything, it just boats that you spent more money on the car than you otherwise could have (sure, there are advantages to F Sport and I'm glad I got it, but that's besides the point).

Badge looks cool in the rear. But maybe leave the badges for the side panels and use the F like Lexus uses the h for the hybrids. IS 350F. Subtle, but works.

Pretty much, but if you paid $4,000 more than you should have shouldn't you have the right to let it be known by putting a badge on the back?

I like it that no one knows what you have. I debadged my B5 S4. Those who knew about them, could tell the differences between S4 from an A4. But my friends would say nice A4, until I gave them a ride, then they would say this isn't an A4. Same with the new IS, people in the know, would look for the front bumper or side badges. Others who don't and see the badge wouldn't care.

From the front, you can spot an F-Sport. From the side, you can spot an F-Sport. If I'm following another 3IS, however, there's no way to know if it's an F-Sport. I wish there was a badge.
I found one on Amazon for around $20 and put it on. After about 6 months, the materials had started to fade and it looked awful, so I took it off. My advice, if you want to add the F-Sport badge, is to buy from a dealer and not some random online store.
