Default 2010 front bumper replacement

Hi guys,

I got a flat tire and ended up messing up my front bumper. Anyone know if I can upgrade to 2011-2013 bumpers if my car is a 2010 IS250? I used to buy stuff from sewell but they closed down, is there another place to buy online like sewell? TIA

Youll need to piece it together.

Search here for fsport conversion.

Will run you about 12-1400 bucks before paint

I found a 2IS to 3IS conversion kit from NIA auto but it's made out of fiberglass for full kit $1500. Not sure if fiberglass will be safe compared to urethane. Anyone tried this?

I considered it, but figerglass is not strong at all. There was a vendor who said theyd make a polypropylene bumper (stronger) but they fell off the map.

I considered that one but 1500 + 250 shipping for less durability strength

Before paint....

I've reading and searching and most have done it from 07/08 to 2012 fsport upgrade with some mods to air duct. I know 2010 bumper is different so I was wondering if there are any modifications needed to upgrade to 2012/2013 fsport bumper. I already have the 2011 headlight with the headlight support modified. anyone done fsport upgrade from 2010 to 2012/2013? TIA
