Default Grill(e) options for a 2009 is250

Hey forum,

I am looking for a grill for my is250 (2009). I was hoping to be able to find a grill that looked identical to the f-sport mesh grill on Sewell, but without the oval in the middle for the Lexus badge. Essentially, a plain mesh grill.

If these don't exist, what else, besides chrome, looks good? (pics?)
I would like to keep it under $300 !

Thanks in advance!

Was in the same boat as you, ended up bitting the bullet and just going with the fsport one on sewell. Doesn't look bad tbh.

Ya thats what I was afraid of... Was hoping to get a plain one without the oval space to hold the badge.

Definitely not discontinued, it's a factory part (not an accessory). Expect it to be available for the next 10-15 years, lol.
