Default Aimgain International bumper conversion

I've been thinking about doing Aimgain International bumper conversion on my 2015 GS 350 F Sport.
Any CL member here have done it on there '13-'15 F Sport? Care to share some pictures?

Someone tried to install this one and it did not work out for them. I think I will try this eventually : https://www.ebay.com/itm/13-15-Lexus...kAAOSwhyZbqAYQ

Oh really, fitment issues with the Aimgain?

eBay one you linked looks good. Comes with center grill and fog lights too.. Not bad price. And seller is very close to me. Wonder how is the fitment.

I have yet to see anyone post pics of the installed Aimgain bumper conversion. Only pics I've seen so far are from the vendors. Has anyone actually received their bumper yet?

I'm waiting for my front and rear valence from Aimgain for the '13 F Sport. Will post pics when it arrives (been waiting for 5 months now). The fitment issue was from the ebay conversion kit. I haven't heard any issues with the Aimgain conversion.

Cool, please do post pictures and let us know your comment about the fit of the Aimgain kit. I was going to get my bumper repainted. Thinking about going full Aimgain kit while I'm at it.
I was going to try the eBay kit, but sounds like fitment could me a major pain.

I also have a front bumper ordered. It's completed, but currently waiting to be loaded into a crate for shipping. Will post more once received.

Here's a pic that I found from the IG user sn_elvis. He did the Aimgain bumper conversion on his 2013 GS350.

Got my order delivered to the shop today. Will stop by tomorrow to take a look (will take some pics of the parts). With the type 2 valence, I will need to either get a new quad tip axle back (apexi) or just get a quad tip added onto my Joe Z. I think apexi is a bit louder which I'm not too fond of since Joe Z is loud enough with the apexi midpipe that I already have (plus that's additional $1k that I rather spend on something else). Anyone with the quad tip insert? Does it look funky?

So did that run you $3.5K? Also, it came pre-painted?

@BUZY3215: Looks well packaged...Is your car starfire / ultra white? Interested to hear about fitment, front parking sensors, fog light install, etc once you get it all put together!
