Default IS F badges vs ISx50 badges

i just checked the measurements on my buddy's IS250 and found that the "L" in the front and rear of the car is slightly smaller on the ISx50 vs the IS F

i was going to buy a set of IS250 badges and use them on my F but i think they're different...

anyone else tried this too???

the "L" emblems on the IS F are a few millimeters larger than the ISx50. I too wanted to try it out but when i got the smaller "L" emblems, it didnt fit all too well. initially i thought lexus would just supplant the same size emblems for both "L" (front and rear), "LEXUS", and "IS"....the last two are no problem; its just the front and rear "L"

The front "L" is larger on the ISF. Also, on the back, the S in IS has a different pinhole location and the I has none at all. So you'll have to shave off the point in the S and level it by eye. Not hard at all though.
