Default LS460 Front Grills

Without distorting the original look of the front of the 2008 LS460 model, do any of you know of any existing after market lower front grills that can be used to replace the black plastic grills (original Lexus grills look a bit boring and cheap) that are snapped on to the front bumper? Please attach pictures, or links to, if available. Thanks!

I know you are asking about the lower grill, but if you want to freshen up the front look overall..just plasti-dip that main grill and put in some DRL LEDs below FTW!!! LOL

Brian, thank you very much for your suggestions!

I've gone on to the Seraph site but pricing is in Japanese (whew, quite expensive!). Any idea if these are available for purchase in the States? I like the version with LED, and the one with chrome (your last 2 pictures) - look simple.

Thanks again!

Everything available in Japan is available here to the US customer; however, those two (2) options you aforementioned, I almost guarantee no one will have them in stock, so the wait time is what most people don't want to deal with. Estimated wait time is typically 2-4 months for production/shipping. PM me if you can't find anyone local to you to import this over - I'm sure I could point you in the right direction.

I've always liked this, but seems more like an accent light and not very bright as a DRL I'm assuming

Yeah that chrome strip is by far the best bang for your buck. But this thread showed me some nice lower grille options I wouldnt touch the top but the lower grille has always bothered me.
