Default Lexus Stickers on front bumper?!

Lexus Stickers on front bumper?!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Lexus...%3A1|72%3A1171

This looks like an IS250 with some F-sport stuff, what really caught my eye and made me go into the auction was the stickers on the front bumper, i cannot believe how ugly it looks!!

Those look completely unacceptable. Not a fan of the "FSport" badge either - tacky.

there's enough emblems on the car. it's like the lower half cannot "breathe" without running into a lexus emblem an inch away! haha. plus from afar to me, it kind of makes the car look like it's..damaged, like there's a hole. but that's just what i thought..

I don't even see any f-sport parts on there? unless they got the sway bars and the cf engine cover ...

not dropped, no f-sport brakes, no f-sport wheels, no f-sport exhaust.

and yes, the sticker is quite ugly ... the f-sport emblem doesn't help .. neither does the lexusofwestminister emblem.

Full GFX Kit, I'm pretty sure that's part of the F-sport line? no?

^ i would be led to believe otherwise.

case in point, the gfx kit was already available when the 2is was released in MY 2006; the f-sport product line-up for the 2is wasn't available until MY 2008.

the only reason i would think the gfx kit is an "f-sport" product is because it's seen on the f-sport brochure/factory demo cars.

Yeah, i figured since all F-sport cars have the GFX kit, that it was F-sport.
