Hi, I bought a pair of fender badges for my non-f-sport version. Can anyone tell me the exact position of the fender badges?

Wait....so you bought F sport badges for your Non Fsport? Doesn't that defeat the purpose of the badging?

Also....false badging is quite ricer-ish.

No f sport version of 300h is available for my location, and so I bought a f sport front bumper and grille, as well as stock wheels, and now it's time for the badges.

Well, one could make the argument that the F sport itself is an impostor to the real ISF/RCF.

I think it's whatever......

I have been saying this since "F-sport" was deemed a trim. Bastardization of the label.

But, at least the badge says Fsport and not just F. So there is some differentiation.

OP, realize that putting on some parts, does not make your car an Fsport. No matter what you do, your VIN number still says your a non-F sport.

Make the changes to the car, but don't false label the car. Or wait for the one day that someone says "how come your Fsport doesn't have X, but others do?" And you have to look silly and say....its not a real Fsport.

And then there are the F elitists saying "Go spend another 10-15 grand on a real F instead of an F-Sport" lol.

I think it's really too bad they didn't make an 3IS-F. There are still some people who want a performance sedan and not a coupe. Imagine this car with a V-8.

I agree. But it's nothing to worry about, since Lexus isn't completely abandoning the IS-F. It'll make it's comeback soon.

I think I read somewhere that they couldn't fit the IS-F engine in the current 3IS. If that's the case, they're either going to build a completely new engine to fit it in the 3IS or release an IS-F with the next generation.

To the OP, what you want to do with your car is up to you. If you really want to know the position of the badges, you're probably better off searching for a picture on the internet.
