I just trade in my 2007 IS350 since it was getting too small for me. I wanted the GX460 but the gas mileage was the deal breaker for me. Liked the Audi Q5 but reliability is very important to me so no to that.. No pictures yet since it's all nasty where I'm at now.

Congratulations vanson350. Yes, please post pics when you get a chance. Always nice to see RXs out there especially the rarer F-Sports

Viperdoc,

Where do you get the hitch specifically for the f sport? Also, how much does it cost?

strife77

Nvm, I found it here. Thanks for the post!

Do you have pics of the hitch? Does it look hidden? I know there were two different types for the 2nd generation RX where one was curved and looked alot better than the square on that was after market.

Vanson350, wow! F-Sport is rare as it is, now playing in the mud? Thumbs up for a never-before-seen footage of the capable RX. Love it. And, indeed, good choice over the less reliable competition as Lexus has won the most reliability/dependability/quality awards than any other luxury brand the last 24 years. And I hear you about the smallish IS as I had one too.

I'll be taking her out in the desert next week. I know she has her limits but the pavement isn't where it ends.

RX 350 F-Sport, Claret Mica
Just took some pictures yesterday after using Nu-Finish on it.
The pictures are still on my phone, I will post the pictures and put some in the garage under my user accounts a little later.

Question for the RX F-Sport Owners
Have you attempted to find a stone/bug/hood deflector for your F-Sport?

I have been searching for a couple months now, periodically search again hoping the deflector makers such as WeatherTech, AVS would start making/selling them, but still no luck.

All the searches only came back with this eBay listing:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/2010-2013-LE...-/261121359770
(I communicated with the seller, very friendly, but he/she doesn't have a F-Sport to try the deflector on and offer return acceptance if it doesn't fit)

Just wonder if anyone has one on or attempted to look for one.

Thanks for the pictures, vanson350!
What a trip driving it out in the desert

Are you putting the hood deflector on to keep bugs from the windshield or for not getting stone chips and bug etching? Because let me tell you, they dont work if you choose to use them as protection for stone chips but are great on the other hand for keeping bugs from the windshield.

As for the deflector itself, it looks like it will fit but im not certain so personally wouldnt go for it. It is up to you though. Im sure Lexus themselves do a deflector for the RX. Even if you can get a deflector for the 2013 model onwards they will all fit as the lights and hood are the same.
