The only thing I would change on mine right now is the emblem from the old SC400 to one that says, "SC250".. Meaning 2.5 liter, 1JZ swap... or for those with a 3.0 do the SC350.. These can be found the IS's and so on...

I bought one a couple years ago when I painted my car, it sort of goes with the theme. I would do it because I'm a ricer.

Don't do it because you think it will impress others.
Do it because it's your GD car and you want to.

Agreed.
Lexus never came out with an SC F sport.

Just waiting for the LF-LC to come to fruition

If you want performance badges, get a set of TRD badges. Don't be a retarded ricer and put an F badge on it.

This thread is F'd. If CL issued CL licenses, yours would be revoked. Between this thread and your "designation" thread, I'm really starting to think you don't own a vehicle...... Let alone a Lexus....... I'm teasing.

Well which one is it?! I sure hope it's an SS with those wheels. ...still... kinda fail. OP: I could understand putting an "F" badge on it if you swapped the F engine in, otherwise it's like putting a "type R" on a mustang notchback (I have unfortunately seen it)

I live in texas, I've seen every variation of gt, gtr, type r, etc on cars that were not originally even of the same make of the badges they used, combined with autozone fender ports. This falls into that category. You like rice, go for it. people will make fun of you

An F badge on the SC would look too tacky, out of place. You will probably get more negative attention than you want. Also I'm of the opinion that the only acceptable badges to swap are the Soarer ones, but even that is debated upon on this forum.

At the end of the day, it's your car to do whatever you want with.

Thank you
Thats what I had in mind; purely for aesthetic purposes.
Again, in the future when I have enough mods to justify it.
