Are you talking about completely replacing the grille with the one pictured? It probably won't fit. Or are you referring to getting chrome slats on for your current grille? IMO, it would be too blingy and cheapen the look.

I think it will look good against the black. I've seen a black 4GS in my neighborhood with a chrome billet grille (https://www.carid.com/2013-lexus-gs-...138131800.html) and it looked pretty good. However, the trend has definitely moved away from grilles and trims that are "chromed-out" and "blingy". I ended up going the route of a black mesh grille from E&G Classics and am very satisfied with the results.

Check out the white GS with chrome strips added to the grill slats in this thread:

Nice and Rice! That ship has definitely sailed as far as trends. Also, with the new wave of Lexus spindle grills, that'll make your GS look even more dated imo. If you do it though, you have to post pics!

I would not recommend it either. If you want to change it up a little, why not try the f-sport grill? or are you looking for something a little bit more bolder?
