Default Front F sport emblem instead of Lexus emblem

Does anyone know where I could buy this or do this for my RC 350? <br >

David:
Why stop there?
If you want to fool people about what kind of a car you have, why not put a Lamborghini Logo on it?
That's what I would do.

That reminds me... a few weeks ago I seen a pickup truck with Lexus emblems on it. I was pretty sure that Lexus didn't produce pickup trucks and something about it just didn't look right anyway. I'm not sure what brand it was since it definitely had body work done to it.

As for the F, I prefer the L. To each their own.

I'm sure he means "to each his own."

Maybe they want to be inclusive of all genders

But "each" is singular, and using a plural pronoun with a singular antecedent means that "each" is having it their way, not his own way, which is not what the writer intended to say - in fact it's just the opposite. Perhaps he slept through the class in grade school on pronoun agreement, or perhaps he thinks women will be offended to find that they are included in the generic masculine, but such women would be very small thinkers.

I wasn't aware that I was being graded on my forum grammar. Perhaps I should have written "to each her own." That would have been grammatically correct. I suppose that any such men who would be offended are likewise very small thinkers?

It's a damn forum, lighten up.

That looks very cartoonish and draws too much (negative) attention IMO.

If you have to change it, I would just do black chrome or something.

Watch out!!! Grammer school patrol is out!!! Haha!!! I still got high enough on the verbal section on SAT!! Man, that was some 35 years ago. Good times. Time sure flys.

Relax, it is just a forum. It's all good. I knew what the OP meant. ☺😃😀

LOL at the comments on how cartoonish that F logo is. But having the RC lowered like those ghetto cars is not laughable. To each one's own.

OK, you guys – You are correct. I was wrong, and I am truly a sarcastic moron. I am so sorry. I’m really humbled. No lie. I apologize profusely. No kidding. I really went too far this time. Mentioning that grammatical mistakes can convey muddled thinking was cyber-bullying at its worst. This is sincere. No fooling around now. When I’m wrong, I’m wrong. I’m not joking. This time I am being honest with you. There’s no punishment in Hell cruel and unusual enough for what I’ve done.
I know now that verbal excess in the pursuit of automotive commentary is no virtue. This, guys, is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. I swear it on a stack of Bibles. Right before your very eyes and right to your face. I’m so ashamed and publicly humiliated. No wonder I have been banned from so many places. I’ll never make a snarky remark like that again. I promise. Really. I will never even mention front emblems or questions about “brake calibers” made on this forum or anywhere else, nor will I ever care again about how I talk. My pain is so unbearable and I am so filled with such utter remorse that words will never convey the depths of my anguish. If I could, I would come over to your houses and put F-Logo emblems on the front of all your cars. I apologize again and again and again.
Now we’re square, I think.

Tim, that was the best effort at apologizing as ever I've seen. Now, back away from the keyboard, and go out and enjoy the day.

Default "F" front emblem

Buncha jerks on here w/ these responses.
David, I read on insta it's completely custom to each vehicle & it's crafted in Japan (figures). I'll do some more prying, as this caught my eye as well.
