Spindle grille

Folks, let's face it. The spindle grille used throughout the 2010's was a disaster. I couldn't believe how ugly it was. To this day, I see a 2018 IS, a 2020 LX, whatever, and I have to jerk my head away out of horror thanks to the knucklehead who designed that thing. We all know that was the worst design in history. Not just automotive history but history in general. The history of this world.

I see that spindle thing on the new RX and probably other new Lexus cars morphed into something almost as ugly. What do you all think of this? Surely you people who bought your RX can't think your vehicle is attractive in any way. It's just not possible.

Curious to gather all your input on this mistake!

EDIT: Forgot to include the disaster that was the Acura beak of the early 10's. Not quite as bad when they softened it but still pretty ugly. Couldn't get an RLX because of it.
