Can I ask why does everyone's front bumper have that little cut out square in it? Also what are the rectangle raised things under the headlights for/do?

Little cut out?

and those rectangles are headlamp washers, it sprays.

I have an 09 IS350 in tungsten pearl and absoltely love it. It bearly fits the stroller and babyseat, bur I like it over the GS and especially ES. Thats what the wifes 4runner is for. There are more differences thst I noticed from the 06-08.

-White leather stitching
-Buttons for the sunroof instead of the dial
-Nav buttons are bit different
-Most important, we 09's can shift in drive mode while moving

I am GM, Ford, Honda, Nissan & Infiniti ECU tuner and I own the dyno shop too. Unfortunately there is no product for Lexus.

Looking real good there! Love the color and wheels.
FWIW, new seatbacks were done for '08, not '09.
