2006 Lexus Refresh
Looking to have my 2006 IS painted due to some recent damage. I was thinking that it may make sense to give it a refresh while it's being painted. What components should I consider changing out during this process (front bumper, headlights, etc)? My logic is that components off a newer IS may make it age slower. I would prefer an factory look. If you could specify where I can purchase the components that would be great as well!
Thanks for your suggestions!

Thanks. The pricing on the GFX front lip seems more in line with my budget.
Any other recommendations...what should I do before/while I have the car painted?
Thanks!

Interior LED lighting (should be less than $100), you can easily do it yourself too. I believe Sewell offers a whole package for that too.
You can get a cheap exhaust like M2 ($280) which makes the rear better looking plus a little bit more aggressive sound. This exhaust is very quiet almost like stock but growl when you push it.
