Default Is this a F-Sport Exhaust?



From what I remember, I thought all piping and mufflers were polished not just the tips? Correct me if I'm wrong.

Most stock photos of the F-Sport exhaust show them polished, the one in the photo just looks dirty IMO. Here are some photos from another thread as reference: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/2ge...h-no-logo.html

This could be either the very first Lexus HKS exhaust or the first gen F-Sport exhaust with no engraving. The only difference between these two is if you look down the right muffler and see if that is a dummy with a straight pipe (F-Sport, which is louder) or an actual muffler (Lexus HKS, less drone and a bit quieter).

This thread will go further in depth about those two: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/per...ds-inside.html

Look like it to me too! The only way to know for sure is look for the P/N engraved on the parts.

That looks like the first version of the F-sport exhaust, the lexus HKS f-sport exhaust because I don't see "F-sport" engraved on the tips

1. Lexus HKS
2. F-Sport with no engraving

looks real to me. The f sport exhaust has unique rounded mufflers so if it has those it is most likely real. I've never seen or heard of a replica f sport exhaust.
