Despite the fact that it will require a cowl hood, this look really good for ISF owners.
I also chuckled that they used the photo of an Evo X exhaust

not feeling that slant round tip exhaust.....they've should've kept it straight
did a quick PS..........

or maybe oval tips with stack exhaust would've been better

Though it seems that Lexus in onto something with this new trend of stacked exhaust, even Ferrari jumped in...

I like the way the exhaust looks side-by-side in the photoshopped pics by chikken but like timeToy said, they'd probably have to do something with the bumper to make them fit. I can't wait to see the finished product

I like how these ISx50 owners chime in when they can't even afford an IS-F. If you can't afford it, don't find reasons to dis it. The tips serves a purpose, and if its for looks then its something....why don't you go and post on some ferrari forum about their "fake" tips cuz I don't want to hear it.

This whole story about the exhaust tips is really getting old.
A growing number of cars have theses exhaust finishers, the reason being, the exhaust need some slack, it needs to move under acceleration and gear changes, this is the reason why there is that gap between the exhaust and the tips. But it is far from being fake.
Also, let look at the other cars that sport "fake" tips, Bugatti Veyron, Ferrari California, all the Bentley, all the Rolls Royce, the LS460, Audi R8 and I'm sure I forget a few...

We are all lexus fans just like you. Just because we dont have an IS-F doesnt mean we all cant come together here in a forum and give our opinions. Anything we say here is not to be considered of an offensive nature. Im not bashing the the IS-F exhausts, but you can be sure BMW fans are. And even if lexus can back it up with some evidence, others will still bash on anything they can. To a degree, they are right. Someone physically stuck their hand in between the tips and the exhaust pipe. All the other cars you mention are still close enough that you cant put a hand between. Regardless, the exhaust is sick. First mod I would get if I had an ISF, or first mod I WILL get when i get my ISF.
At least the tips serve a purpose on our cars, plus there is actually 4 openings coming out to match the 4 tips. There's nothing fake about it.
