But alas, it is near impossible to replicate through after market parts. If you don't believe me, read this thread: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/ct-...omparison.html

Now if you are looking into LED's for the interior lamps, this thread from another forum will give you an excellent starting point. http://www.ct200hforum.com/forum/lex...ed-lights.html
Yes it's a 2015 F Sport. And thanks for the links amigo!

How much did the front bumper conversion cost you? I got a 2014 ct200h. Non f sport. But did hid low beams and fog light and all led interior lights. Plus front and rear strut bars and injen intake. Would love to do the front bumper as well.

It costed me $1,720 plus $200 shipping for the entire front bumper including the fog lights. Since you have the 2014 non-sport version, you don't need to shell out as much as I did. I am expecting that you'll need to just swap the grille mesh. Just saw the Sewell website. This is most likely the upgrade you'll need: http://lexus.sewellparts.com/accesso...2014/7053.html. Just register at Sewellparts to receive clublexus member discounts. You can check other online dealers too. (I just noticed you have over 275 posts. Ignore the last advice

I like your setup, since you got the non f-sport beige interior. The dark f-sport interior color scheme never appealed to me. Oh and by the way, you definitely don't need any fog light modifications.

Wha does my post count have to do with it? Been a member for years and sold and bought plenty of things on here since I registered. Anyway. So you think the grill would be all I really need? And was the beige interior complement directed to me?

Yes, grilles are what you'd need I think. You can verify with Sewell Parts or your local dealer to confirm your requirements.

Added mudflaps to the list. Here are some pictures. Fit and finish came out very good for me.

I wanted to do a paint matching the body colours but decided otherwise after the installation. My neighbour has a body coloured mud flap (not CT), it doesn't look as nice as the black one in my opinion.

I also wanted to do a completely unscientific test to see if there's any change in the dust collected at the rear. Here are a few pics of the rear window and hatch after about a days worth of 125-150 km drive. The drive used about 40% 100+ km/h (Highway 401 in GTA), 40% 80-100 km/hr, and 20% 20 km/hr (Don Valley Parkway). It was a dry day, but it had rained the day prior.

Wanted to show you guys dust collected. Not sure if you'll notice much. To my eyes there is a noticeable reduction of dust collected in the rear. But I am in no way standing by my statement as universal. I found a definite reduction after one test. To say I'm happy is an understatement.

By the way, did I show you my setup inside? It's quite nothing to speak about actually. I have attached a picture. Nexus 7, with a black and white PU cover + Lexus phone holder + small right angled USB cord. Works the best of anything I could think of: videos, maps, music, you name it.
