Lots of GS F Sport owners did the same, IMO it looks great! Especially on SFP.

Default F Sport Badge on Rear Deck- a variation of a theme...

The dealer had their logo on the left side, I made short work of the swap.
The F cost $32 at the Lexus store.
I used some fishing line to remove the logo after heating it up with the heat gun.
Make sure you have the F Sport Logo where you want it to reside, because there are no second chances.
It looks like it should have come that way or over on the other side, however, I am a big fan of symmetry !!!...gm

How do you put it on? I just got the badge and notice on the back of the badge there are 2 pins sticking out. Do you have to drill? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I definitely WOULD NOT drill into the sheet metal. If your badge is like mine, it is made of plastic. Take some needle nose pliers, grasp each of the plastic pins down as far as you can and just twist them off. The sticky backing of the badge is all that is necessary to keep it on. I have had mine on for more than 4 months and the thing doesn't move. Some people have said that the badge they got is larger than that on the fenders....mine was exactly the same size, but still larger than the "RX" letters.

I bought the F Sport Badge for the 2013 RX Fender, it just had sticky on it. No Posts. nothing to modify, just peel the clear plastic off and press it on. Be careful, you only get one shot, if goes on wrong, you will either have to remove and start over with a new badge or look at it wrong from now on!!.....gm

Have you guys ever considered just putting the F badge rather than the F Sport badge in replacement of the LEXUS wording? I think it looks neater.

The F Sport badge looks great on the side...though the F would be even nicer.

Just my 2 cents and second post ever.

Hi all, I will be adding the F Sport badge to my car too. It is a 450h with FSport package . My car does come with the LEXUS badge on the left, so what I am still not sure is if I'll add the FSport badge under the 450h, under the LEXUS or replacing the LEXUS on. What you guys suggest? BTW, mine is a Red Claret Mica.

Replace the Lexus name and put the F sport badge there. On the later years they removed the Lexus name. On the newer 4th gens the F sport badge is where that is located now on your car.

I put the 4th gen F sport badge on mine to mirror how it is on the 4th generation. Came out nice and spiced up the rear area

Yeap, it's the look I'm going after, the 4rth gen. The badge I got is the 4rth gen as well.

So,are we putting F sport badges on non-Fsport RXs? Just curious since that's similar to people putting Type R stickers on anything Honda.

Well, I don't know about others but mine is a FSport version: wheels, grill, steering, fender badges, seats... That's as F Sport as RX goes, I guess.
