Aaron from Sewell confirmed all the parts are from the F sport 2014 bumper, fog lamps are LEDS,......
parts came out at 2 led fog lamps, 2 f sport brackets, and 2 f sport front lamp plates, along with a new IS light switch stalk for the lamps to function.....parts are coming from Japan should be here in 3 weeks time.....
TOTAL=415 shipped
Thanks Joe Z for the 2 cents i had to add the covers which were 50 a piece i only ordered the brackets...hopefully all goes as planned

But don't be surprised once you receive all the US Spec parts... That will not work on your F-Sport Bumper...
These below JDM (Japan spec) parts are the only parts that have to be imported from a Lexus Japan parts distributor.. You can not order them via a Lexus USA part number / dealership..
Below are the parts required to install F-Sport Fog Lamps on an F-Sport Bumper..
Are these the parts Sewell has ordered for you ???

What information is that ?
All that parts posted soo far, are all the US SPEC regular sedan bumper / fog part numbers...
None of these will work or fit on the F-Sport Bumper, and yes I understand Sewell has them listed stating that the parts are for:
"w/ factory f sport package"
The problem is the Factory US Spec F-Sport has NO Fog Lamps.. So those part descriptions are very misleading..!!
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it is what it is...

So it has been about 5 weeks. Did you actually receive the correct parts or was it all (as Joe Z said) a big fiasco and the parts were from the regular sedan non F Sport?
Curious because like probably a lot of people here, we would rather order this instead of double to triple the price... as long it is the right parts and fitting.
And by the way, the brackets are NOT needed because they are already in the bumper. As per the Lexus US parts, the F sport Front Bumper already has the Fog Lights Brackets on it, but instead of Fog Lights, we get what they call "Front Bumper Hole Cover".
Now lets see if the parts are the right ones... we all are waiting....
