Default F sport decal for F sport grille emblem?

Hey all, new to the Lexus game. I see a few IS's on Instagram that have "F" covering their Lexus emblem in the F sport grille and am wondering where you get one? I have the collision prevention so I cannot change out my emblem so this looks like the next best thing. Thanks for any help!

I don't have a front F emblem, but it's not an actual emblem that is sold and replaces your emblem. To my knowledge, it's simply a vinyl overlay; ask a vinyl wrapper in your area if they could print out an F emblem for you. The process would be something along the lines of : cut out an oval black background, cut out the F image in colour of choice, lay the F over the background, apply transfer tape, transfer both pieces of vinyl to the emblem and squeegee it down.

Here's my emblem as an example:

OK, that is what I will do thanks. I knew it was just a sticker or vinyl add on, just was not sure if someone sold them already done. Thanks!

Default F sport Vinyl logo

Had the F sport logo overlay made and it came out pretty good. 3 step Gloss black with the chrome and then the clear vinyl. Had to buy 5 but it was worth it.

Any way I could buy one? But with a white "F"? Looks sharp man. I blacked out my chrome around the grill and did fog lights this weekend.

Alright, I'm good with buying one. It's way better than my "L". The small amount of chrome looks good. Let me know!!

I wanted to ask where you got this done. I also want to do something like this but I'm not entirely sure where to begin to search

Hi LarryV, Would you be willing to share the information on where you purchased the "F" Emblem? That thing just looks amazing and I would love to purchase for me as well,
Do you know if it fits on Lexus RX F Sport?

Check this guy out on FB in the group Lexus IS Freaks. His name is Daniel Wen. He's from Puerto Rico, and he has some awesome looking F decals for sale.
