Default Lexus GX460 Exhaust Tip on an IS?

Our good friends at Sewell are selling the Lexus GX 460 exhaust tip to be placed on the IS... I'd like to see if someone has done this or seen this. I didn't know if this would require me to have the GFX rear lip to because I would definitely want to the tips to be flush with the edge of the bumper and not poke out... Does any one have a photo of these installed on an IS?

Here is the link to Sewell Parts: http://is.sewellparts.com/accessories-catalog/Exterior/IS350-2012/6272.html

Youd be better off buying a set of AP2 tips for 90-120

The GX's are less if you log into the Sewell website with your ID. Also, the AP2 tips stick out pretty far don't they? You are required to have the GFX?

Here is how to get Sewell dicount:
1. Visit http://is.sewellparts.com/
2. At the top RIGHT of the screen, select "Login/Register"3. Under "New Customer", select REGISTER NOW button.
4. Fill out the Account Registration Form. Make sure you complete everything listed. Under "Forum Membership Information," make sure you DO NOT FORGET to select "Club Lexus." This gives you discounts on EVERYTHING.
5. Now click "Register" and the screen should now say, "Your account was successfully created."
6. Under "Returning Customer," use your newly created account to login! Wow!
7. Once logged in, click on the "L | IS" to start shopping!
8. Select your car from the drop down menu!
9. As you can see, Sewell shows you the discount do to your Club Lexus membership! Wow!
10. Add all the things you want to your cart and then you will see the grand total including shipping! Incredible! Now click "Checkout"
11. I ALWAYS choose Paypal and then follow the instructions accordingly!

anyone used this? Pics?

is it PT93260120 from the GX 460 f sport?

The designs I found from searching this part are not the same design?

Looking for an alternative to AP2 as they stick out too far on the stock rear end.

shipping is $$$ to AUS but they do look quite nice and are adjustable / no cutting & welding required.

Sorry to bring this back from the old days..

Ordered these for my is250... They DO NOT fit as advertised. The "clamp" doesn't tighten enough around the muffler tip. It also sticks out A LOT and looks ridiculous.
I had to get them cut down (clamp removed as it looks cheap as well), and had them welded onto the muffler

I was looking at these as an option but wasn't feeling the original clamp since it could be loosened in seconds and there goes $80 per side. Do you have more pictures after the cut and weld job?
