I completely forgot to add that to the list - and I agree it looks way better Added! Thanks

Nice IS! Looks like you've definitely gotten a good start on your modifications and have a lot planned. Can't wait to see future photos, man.

I'm down in Eugene, I've had my 08 for a month now! When we both get a little further along we should meet up for a shoot! I have a couple really talented photographer friends.

I had the option of luxury or f sport package and deided on the luxury. You can always stick/bolt on f sport option and some of the luxury option are not so easy add later on.

^^^ Good point plus im sure you can find the parts cheaper then what the dealer is charging by including them... not sure if these are the F badges your looking for but just saw this in the class. section https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is2...ort-badge.html

I actually wanted an F-Sport, but I would not have gotten nearly the price I paid for my AWD + LUX + NAV as it was the last 350 they had in stock. Plus, like another poster said, you can always add the F-Sport addons that you want later

Nice! You moved to Cali huh? Got tired of all the rain?

Ouch, I already purchased mine - but thanks anyway! I wish I didn't purchase mine yet because that's a good price

You can add F-Sport later but not quite the same.

Just saying....The F-Sport badges in perfect position and there was per-drilled holes there the badge can only go in one place and one way.

Also the F-Sport bumpers and everything else is per-painted from the factory with the cart. Doing it after, one will have to get it hand painted.. won't be the same quality compared to factory paint.
