I know some know exactly what I mean and some don't think its enough of a difference, but I just installed the oem side gfx in Ultrasonic Blue on my IS350. I ordered from sewell and it was pretty pricey at approx three hundred but local paint shops wouldnt do it for that cheap after i asked. I don't know if many have gotten a custom painted gfx from sewell but I had a hard time finding much about it. All in all it was a decent match. They repainted a breakwater blue side gfx. Wonder if they primed it all the way down though... some of the paint that would be covered by closed doors, has a bit of green hue.. Almost like breakwater. nonetheless its a close enough match in most ways and I already installed them. I like it way more then stock and the paint blended well in dark to light and natural lighting... you can only notice differences extremely closely. I have an ocd about colors and lines, its part of my livelihood, and I would give it a pass. Also I remember getting the side gfx for my last glacier frost lexus is250 oem painted and those matched even less. So i say success. It no longer looks like the sides were shaved off from the sides and the bottom. Its not an obvious upgrade but lets just say it just looks right. Will get pictures up when I get back from vacation and give it a proper wash.

Also thinking about silver metalic plastidiping the lower part of the rear bumper, the part where it is that rubbery black. Think the contrast would look pretty nice on the darker painted ISX50s like oem does against lighter painted ones. Also thinking of clear plasti diping the emblems and chrome.. since apparently it gives a brushed metal look.. Any thoughts? ideas? or examples of that would be appreciated.

I noted the title is confusing because you said F-Sport side.

In this case, you gotten the GFX, which is not the F-Sport just for clarification because they are different. F-Sport ones is only available from Lexus Japan and they are factory painted therefore, you can get them in USB for instance.

There is also F-Sport rear as well.

My bad... not what i meant, I've tried to edit the title but only half worked.... but yeah I knew about those JDMs (i've never seen them outside that picture). I wonder if they are even wider. Funny thing is in Japan i've seen them offer the USB in all forms and I am guessing much longer than we've had it.
