Default 2009 IS250/350 front bumper on 2006-2007

I need Need to know what I will need exactly to swap the 2009-2010 front bumper on my 2008 IS350. I know some of you will ask why? Or might say they are identically or maybe suggest the
2011-2012 F Sport conversion. well the issue is I ordered a very nice front 3 piece lip fron Japan and the title stated 2008/2009/2010 IS250/350, but it turns out it only fits 2009-2010 models and I paid $550 for the lp so I have no choice, but to swap the bumper cause there's no way I'm gonna be able to sell the lip for what I paid even though its a nice lip and very unique. Please let me know what I will need for direct fitment. Thanks in advance/ I have attached a picture of what the lip looks like

Im not 100% percent sure but i think the 2009-2010 bumper is a direct fit for the 2006-2008 ISx50 the only thing that is different is the grille. But if I were you i would get the IS-F replica grille that fits our cars.

and the headlights bumper brackets to hold the bumper (must have) I just found out when I swap the 2012 headlights for my friend on his 2010 and noted the headlights brackets are different versus my 07 headlights brackets

Im sure you could sell that lip. Lots of people with 09/10s that are looking for front lips.

Should be direct swap + '09 grill. No headlight bracket changes or fender liner issues. Hell the bumper brackets even work for OEM ISF bumper (besides the sides where its wider).

I must have been thinking about the 11+ conversion.

well when I install the 2012 headlights with my 07 headlights brackets on my friend 2010 IS, the bumper is not mock onto the 07 headlights brackets, therefore I have to use his 10 brackets.
