I know how touchy some of us are about altering OEM badging, but I've earned it and I think it looks sweet.

 

looks wack, no offence.

 

But... You drive a GS350... Not a GS-F.

 

^this... doesn't look right....=/

 

Its a GS with F sport equipped parts

Looks good to me, I would loose the GS but there is a hole there....

 

I personally think this is like putting an M3 badge on a 325i.

You should eliminate the GS and just put an F or F-sport badge.

 

I think an approach that would be more accepted would have been to use the F-sport badge. Badge job looks good but I wouldn't fake it on mine.

What if there was no such thing as an M3 and you replaced your stock 325i parts with M parts?

Would it still be blasphemy?

 

I'd see your point if maybe you had some more substantial f sport parts like bbk, wheels, exhaust... a set of coils and a sway bar are pretty minor upgrades.

If i buy 325 and get a set of M carpet mats and a M shift ****... does that validate a M badge being on my car?

 

^ To some they may be minor but to others that may be a lot. We will all have different views on that.

I think there are other F badges for F-Sport equipped cars unless I am wrong then the one listed? Anyway there is "no" GSF so I don't see this as putting an M badge on a 335. If this was an ISx50 and they removed the badge for the F then I would agree here.

 

You are right that the GSF isn't in production, but Lexus has registered the GSF trademark and anyone who is a Lexus enthusiast knows what GSF stands for. So it is the same as putting an M3 badge on a 325. The badge of the fastest model on the slowest model in the range.

I don't have as much of an issue with putting F-Sport badges on the car. That's just accessorization to reflect that you have F-sport upgrades. Even the Lexus IS350C F-sport comes from factory like that.

It's not egregious like putting a Ferrari badge on a Mustang, but it is cheesy.

 

Isn't the F suppose to be closer to the letters?

 

That's because the badges are screwed on, so he had to cover the hole. LOL

You better remove that badge when the real deal is launched. I think something like this would have been more appropriate.... at least have a V8 hehe..

 

terrible idea imho. bottom line that's the f badge from isf, so that doesn't play well.

like david and some others said, put on the fsport badge and i think it's right on, coz' that's exactly what you have. and i think the badge looks good too

there is no m7 (current generation), but putting m badge on would make it silly. same case imho

 

it would look a lot better if the F was closer to the GS. it just doesnt make sense to put the F emblem on something that isnt from the lexus' F lineup. the F-sport emblem seems more fitting, bit it does look rather small, and thus highly difficult to see on the trunk.
