Default F badge front emblem

Hey guys just wanted to share an easy DIY for your front emblem.

matte black vinyl wrap background, red vinyl wrap F badge cut out, and clear vinyl wrap on top. If its your first time wrapping I highly recommend using a heat gun for a better results.

Cool DIY, and this is one of the best looking RC's I've seen in red. I personally am still waiting on the carbon fiber 'L' being developed by the RR Racing team which also provides air flow functionality. Also, unfortunately, there is way too many haters I know that know a real F from a F-Sport where I live.

thanks! This is candy apple red now. It is not the stock color the rc produce. Honestly i wanted to buy that carbon f badge but it seems too much for me so i went to this route after seeing the build post from zr350f. Cheap and easy. I will eventually purchase the F sport in the future though thats for sure. Dude haters gona hate. Give them a reason to hate and show off your ride!

A guy from one of the Lexus groups on Facebook makes them, Daniel Wen. https://www.facebook.com/daniel.wen.3 He makes them and ships them from Puerto Rico. This is not a vinyl overlay, so don't be shocked at the price when he gives it to you. I believe i payed 70$ ish for mine.

Great!! Thank you for the info, I'll be reaching out to him shortly. I did expect it to be a little on the pricey side, but its okay... I know the Gel Overlay will last a lot longer than the normal Vinyl overlays.
