Default F-Sport Exhaust

Hey everyone, I just joined and just bought my 09 is350 and am picking it up in a week. Besides the whole chrome package and everything fully loaded, I added the f-sport exhaust. I heard some videos and it sounds nice but I would like to hear from people that have it what they think about it. Thanks.

If this is the exhaust you are talking about it is awesome, sounds great, very smooth all over which makes it easy to clean

While on the topic of the F-sport exhaust, how about the clearance of the pipes? I notice on a lot of these aftermarket sport exhaust there is a very low hanging pipe bending down over the rear axle. It's quite visible from behind the car on the road and in my opinion stands out like a sore thumb. All the plumbing should be hidden, with the tips getting the attention. So, how does the F-sport pipes hang under the axle? Do they drag like some others?

a lot of exhausts have the piping hanging down more than stock..the f-sport does stick out. but it's not like it is gonna scrape the ground, its perfect.

Congrats on the F-Sport. I think you'll like it. It's easy to clean, looks great, and sounds even better! It has a very deep and powerful note. Enjoy it!

Have you actually seen these on an IS? If you like it, that's cool, just not my cup of tea.

Hey eveyone! New guy here with a quick question. How much did you all pay for the F-sport intake and/or exhaust. The dealership is offering me 20% off for purchase and installing of the F-sport intake and exhaust. $1400 for exhaust and $400 for intake. Does this sound about right to you guys? Thanks!
