He is saying it fits the GS model, but the years are actually 98 to 05. That crease on the passenger side looks bad and Im not sure that is repairable.

not sure how the lighting is effecting it, but it sure looks like millennium to me. he also states that it is tan in color, which the millennium sorta looks like in some lights.

if i'm not mistaken, lexus stopped using alpine silver after 1999...so a 2000 bumper should be millennium.

I asked the seller and this seller doesn't know what year the car was, either... he just described 2000 for no reason..

he should be able to tell the difference in the colors, as they are very different.

alpine is what most people consider silver (sorry for stereotyping) and millennium has a copperish/greenish hue to it. the alpine should look pretty consistent in all lighting, while the millennium looks silver in bright lighting and more copperish in dimmer lighting.
