Talking How hard would it be to swap 450H grille on '06 GS350?

Heard about it being some light modification needed to be done, has anyone done this mod yet? I'm sure some have but just wanted to know how before I purchase this.




I think it's got some swag, anyone got some hints for me to do this? Thanks for your time.

I think it should be easy, If you ever opened the hood and take off the plastic covers there's a few bolts on the sides that are holding down the grilll.... I would assume it'd be similar since its the same body.

Just take into account the front bumper change in '08.

Thnx man, I am aware of this. Just thought to ask those who have done this mod. Looks much more cleaner than the OEM bbq grille that I have now. Lol
