Default Is this replaceable?

I let my mom use my car during 4th and somehow scraped my car even with all the beeping warnings. It has less than 400 miles

Anyways bumper could be fixed but is the part of the fog housing replaceable or do I really need to buy a whole new grill/chrome trim?

Sorry this happened to you.

It looks as though the fog light housing and lower gray spoiler might be able to be replaced as it is not one solid piece. You would have to call the dealer and find out.

I feel your pain. Some dealers will offer the services of a quick repair contractor on-site who addresses minor dings, dents, and scratches. An inexpensive option with often amazing results. The dealer might comp this service if car is newly purchased (like yours).

Otherwise for perfect results replace:
81482C, USD $41.13
COVER, FOG LAMP, LH
2014/09 - AVC10,GSC10

52119A, USD $962.95
COVER, FRONT BUMPER (specify your car color)
2014/09 - AVC10,GSC10
(Adding in the labor cost may drive the price high enough for an insurance claim, always demand original Lexus Brand parts)

Best of luck to you.

Can you take picture from further out? Like Radical350 said, it may just be wise to go through insurance.

Who is your insurance company? Some won't ding your premium if you're below a certain payout threshold. I can help with any insurance questions so feel free to DM or email me: michael@zeygerinsurance.com

Both the chrome fog light trim and the titainimium trim can be ordered separately. However, to replace them. You will have to remove the bumper cover to release the mounting clips on the back side which hold them in place.
Not an easy task. But can be done.
