Default Front "L" emblem options

I own a 2015 white f sport and I'm looking to replace the front resin emblem with a gloss black version to match my rear emblems. I came across this OEM emblem on Ebay that claims it fits a GS350, but it looks nearly identical to the OEM black pearl option for the 3IS. Does anyone think this emblem would fit the 3IS grill?

I wouldnt know for sure, but I guess people are swapping IS emblems with others. @JasonNguyen swapped his out with an RX Emblem I believe.

Another option is the RR Vented emblems.

Jax, yes that one will fit. that's the OEM emblem off a 2011 Lexus GX. Looks like the seller has painted them black gloss.
These emblem also fit 4th gen GS and RC.

There's another guy that sells black chrome emblem https://www.ebay.com/itm/FITS-GRILLE...AAAOSwlTFd0zGV which is from an RX. Same style as @jasonnguyen has on his car. You can see the difference around the logo. The GX version is more full around the edge. The RX version has a boarder around the logo.

Hey thanks for the feedback! Super happy to see that these will fit the 3is. I'm having all the other emblems including the "f sport" badges done by a local painter. Everything will be in gloss black with the f sport emblems still keeping the white background.

so just to clarify the emblem you linked on ebay which says fits the gs350 would also fit a 2016 lexus is300 fsport without any modifications....just a simple swap? Been looking for a black emblem for a while now
