I too broke one of those plastic brackets. I just glued the rubber piece to part of the plastic piece that didn't brake off. It's holding up great. Or you can just leave the engine cover off.

IS-F Engine Cover supposedly only fits 350. Anyone know why not 250?

CF F-sport engine cover retails for $895- My.IS has all the F-sport prices posted in the General discussion forum.
How in the world did you break a tab? I think it's more user error than poor Lexus quality, I've had mine off half a dozen time to clean it...

I've had mine off about 3 dozen times and that's when I finally broke one of the plastic pieces. Glued and fixed with no worries.

IS-F engine cover does not fit the 350... It only fits the IS-F. The engines are completely different, and as such, the mounting points are also unique for each engine.

glad to see I am not the only one.... guess I just pushed it down to hard, all excited over installing the joez! I'll try the gluething, as I am not spending $250 for a new original cover...

here is an idea, kinda a scummy one thou..... Take a whatever your car is 250 or 350 for a test drive driving a friends car. pull over to a parking lot where your friend is waiting in your car, switch your broken cover for the dealers nice cover. Return the car and no one will know! Scummy to do but will work!

Don't think so.
Covers look different on sides.
