Ain't had the car 3 weeks yet and this happened!
 
So my lady was driving the car today and someone came out of a parking lot and hit her. The front passenger side panel and bumper was hit. Can't drive it because the wheel is rubbing the wheel well.

So I have a question. Can the factory GS-F Sport bumper/grille fit this 2013 GS350? And about how much is the price difference? If it can fit and the difference isn't much, that is what I am going to get put on the car.

Yes but you'll have to go aftermarket fogs too. F-sport doesn't come with fogs.

Is it exact fit?

Didn't someone here just do that mod... because someone dropped a dresser on his hood?

Talk to @peasodos . He just did F Sport swap on his 450h.

He already has the fogs, just needs the f-sport fog trim, and his existing fogs screw right in. I ordered the oem trim from Japan, but any of the eBay ones will work.

I had standard bumper and did the conversion to f-sport.

All you need is f-sport bumper, f-sport tow hook cover, f-sport upper & lower grill, and f-sport fog light trim. Everything else is direct swap.

The price is about the same between f-sport and the standard bumper.

I was talking about this one.

You can do that mod, but be prepared to ratchet up the cha-ching quite a bit more. There’s a conversion bumper on eBay I believe, and there one on two conversion pics I’ve seen posted.

Damn I feel your pain... I bought a 2015 GS350 Luxury Package, bagged on 20" Lexani rims. I had the car for 4 months then someone ran a red light and totaled my car. Just bought a 2016 GS350 Fsport and had the car for 3 weeks and my coworker hit my parked car in the garage... Fml

sxwk12 03-22-19 02:50 PM

Yeah that sucks

Not worth it by cost, just try to look up on eBay for used to get appx cost... easier to get 2016+ GS IMHO... Parts for Lexus are not cheap even from junk yards.

That'll buff out.

From what I've read, you can pop the 2013 F-sport bumper and grille on there easily. The F-sport doesn't have fog lights, so there's a kit you can get to install the fog lights in the fake air intake spots. The refresh grille will be a lot more challenging. I had front bumper damage on my car (2013 lux) a few years ago and considered asking the body shop to get an F-Sport front bumper instead of the standard, but then I decided I didn't want to throw any more wrenches in the process. The pre-refresh F-sport front bumper and grille don't look different enough for me to care that much.
