When I bought it, its says that 100% of the manufacturing parts are from japan. Hawaii's lexus cars are shipped directly from Japan also. Not sure about the cars in the main US.

We get the same... However, I am sure you / we get different DOT regulations...

So i wouldn't be surprised if a Fog Bulb is changed for the US version..

Out of curiosity do your back tail lights have the 4 Leds on the side reflector??? or not..

USA gets the 4 leds, while non US spec gets no leds.

Here is a reference post showing a Japan & US Spec IS-F tail light.

I'm considering doing a 3000k HID setup for the IS-F fogs. Is it confirmed that the IS-F fogs are H-11's?

Yup, the IS-F fogs are H11's, NOT 9006 or 9005's...Darshana S...

For the parking lights I went with the Polarg M-4's...

Glad the bulb swap is easy... on the ISx50 we have to pull the liner on the passenger side wheel-well to access the bulb.. our drivers side is super easy with a small access panel / door.
