I would have to disagree because this design was out since 2011. The "F-Sport" one is designed to match that of the F-Sport package vehicles.
The JDM rear which you're I believe you are referring to is also available from Lexus Japan as well, which is also a 2011 design which you can see here. Just like similar to the "F-Sport" one, it is part of a set and cannot be purchased individually.
本来の機能である空力性能の向上を実現したエアロパーツセットです。高速走行時、車体を浮き上がらせようとする空気の力（CL値）を減少させ、直進走行や、レーンチェンジなどにおける操縦安定性を高めました。また、ボディが持つ豊かな曲面や美しいラインの流れをより鮮やかに演出。リヤバンパースポイラーと一体となり、スポーティな印象を与える専用のマフラーカッターも付属しています。
The aero parts set with improved aerodynamic performance is a function of nature. At high speeds, air force trying to lift the body (the CL) reduce, driving straight and, for improved handling and stability in such a lane change. In addition, the production flow lines more vivid with rich and beautiful curved body. Be integrated with rear bumper spoiler, muffler cutter also comes with its own sporty impression. - Using google translate!
Notice the F-Sport one looks different.

^ The rear lips (silver car vs. black car in your pictures above) both look the same to me. Or is the color of the dark car making it hard to see the difference with the silver one? 
I was thinking the same thing as langjaykev that this was the one available since 2009.

but isnt the rear lip for this supposedly "fsport 2011" model the same as this thread?

? maybe the front lip is the different from the actualy f sport package.
the side skirts look the same too, and also the rear trunk spoiler is just the oem trunk spoiler that comes on all 2is's

Wish we could translate the Japanese in the JPG image itself. I know there is the 2009+ rear lip and I assumed it stayed the same since but I didn't know they made a F-Sport one for 2011. Anyways, hopefully you can get ahold of the F-Sport rear lip and it'd be great to what it looks like your on IS!

The F-Sport rear and side is slighlty different.
I tried looking on two different monitors and upping the brightness. I just might not be seeing it carefully enough. Wish we could translate the Japanese in the JPG image itself.

F-Sport one, didn't know either, but it has that unique curve thing in the back. As for the F-Sport side, seems to look like it has a more aggressive accent to the JDM side. Not sure how it compares to GFX's side.
For one thing, the JDM pieces are factory painted.

Seems to look like that one. I was looking at the 08 and it didn't have those lines which look similar to the JDM one. Just curious are the 09 rear's factory painted? If not, then would not say the same because JDM's is factory painted.
The F-Sport rear and side is slighlty different.
Oh the 09 one, yeah seems to look similar to JDM. I was thinking 08 and it's like no, not the same!

Not sure since no one ever found where to get em lol. not sure if its worth 2k for the whole kit.. which nearly looks the same as the gfx kit..
fsport splitters 230, gfx sides are about 120-200? and rear lip can range from 160-300ish depnding on color.

Yes, the GFX rear (Rastaracer's garage photo) is obviously different from the JDM rear and JDM F-Sport rear. (At least I know this for sure!) I definitely see the difference here since there's no curves/wavy lines on the GFX rear.
The JDM rear (Lexus Japan silver car picture) and JDM F-Sport rear (Lexus Japan black car picture) look quite similar to me but it looks like you're able to spot the differences. I guess the JDM rear and JDM F-Sport rear were never available in the USA like you said; we only got the GFX stuff which is now discontinued.

My mistake... I think I was mixing up what you were talking about. LOL I probably should've used the "JDM rear", "JDM F-Sport rear" and "GFX rear" in my previous post.
