Looks unbalanced to me. Either add the LEXUS or remove the 350. Just my opinion...

In Hong Kong the 2011 IS250 F sport has the "Lexus" emblem plus "F" emblem beside it on the left side of the trunk lid.

hey, my car came with it dealer installed already , but If I were in your position. I would most definitely get the "LEXUS"!. It looks really naked without it..

I wouldn't debadge IS350. People would assume you have IS250. Aren't most 250 guys debadge to hide this?

That was my exact thought. I was like, "Wait a second...Don't most people de-badge their cars when they are embarrased?"

I'm proud of my 350

But it would be so fun surprising them off the line. Like people who drop LS1's into their Civics. So awesome.

the F sport logo looks good. Think about putting the F logo instead of Lexus.
