I want to do the same thing to my IS250 but wallet is limited. Where did you buy the bumper? Exhaust tips?

£350 + vat per tailpipe/surrounds

"You're looking at about £1000"
Was the answer I got over the phone. Plymouth, UK.

What is the complete list of part numbers for this conversion from an '09? I am really interested.

Thanks ahead of time!

I have successfully completed the project and all installation photos and DIY guide are provided below.

Firstly, i would like to thank everyone on this forum who advised me throughout my planning. A special huge thanks goes to Joe Z and Javier for the expert advice.

The total cost of this conversion including the charges for painting the bumper at a bodyshop was $1,080. I purchased all the parts except the bumper from Lexus Japan and hence made quite a saving.

The exact cost breakdown is:

Bumper Cover with Parking Sensor Holes:
------
$320
------

Bodyshop Painting:
------
$240
------

2x Exhaust Tips
2x Reflectors
2x Towhook Covers
2x Lower retainer brackets
-------------------------
$520
-------------------------


Here are the pictures from start to finish.



Test fitting to make sure bumper will fit before placing order for the most expensive parts.

The OEM IS-F Tips and Reflectors:

Painted IS-F bumper with one of the tips installed

Attachment 437919

This is how it looks once OEM bumper is removed

Tailpipe has to be cut short, this is how long it is:

And this is how short it is after cutting

And here comes the IS-F bumper and all photos:

Attachment 437928

Attachment 437929

Attachment 437930

Attachment 437931

really great and nice looking mod brother...

Can you share the part numbers for the parts used in this project (bumper, tips....reflectors)

Thanks
