Default New type of F-Sport Grille
This came into my work earlier this week on a 2011 SP IS 250c. Window sticker says "F-Sport Grille" I think its decent, but what do you all think?

This is the grille that Troy Sumitomo designed for the 2009 SEMA Lexus IS and GS F-Sport prototypes. I guess Lexus finally decided to put it into production!
