Default De-Badged is-F

Just a friendly advice, for those who decided to De-badge your ride, please keep in mind there will be holes behind the lettering, get ready to spend the extra bucks if you willing to go through this. It cost me $800 for the rear bottom panel and the 2 fenders. fml But now my ride looks nice and clean though

I like the F. But I hate the other badges on the trunk. But for $800, I'd buy a be gross trunk for a few hundred more

+1...Yeah my thoughts exactly. Why do we need the Lexus lettering on the trunk? I think people know its a Lexus from the big Lexus "L" Logo !

Note to OP: First of all welcome to the forums...No disrespect, but the fact that there's holes has been known for a while. There's been numerous threads about it and if you would have looked at those threads you might've saved some money because people were getting the holes filled in for a lot cheaper.

For that kind of money your better off buying a exhaust that will benefit the car IMO..

Debaged is always nice but $800... wow

LOL, this thread would be an 180 from the "Fake ISF Conversion Parts" thread https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...ion-parts.html

Just so you know, your F now will look like an ISX50 with F kit....

Also, I belive you are the only F owner to de-badge. Congrats on being the 1st.

The 2011 ISF does not have the Lexus lettering .. in fact the dealer had put on the dealer lettering & I had it removed.. no holes
