Default GX billet grill

Does anybody have pictures of a billet grill on the GX470? I did a search and saw the one that goes over the stock grill and has a cutout for the "L" logo. Not really my cup of tea. Is there another one that completely replaces the grill? Anybody have pictures?

PS, I did a search and I didn't see what I was looking for.

Default It look bad on the GX

I dont know how old you are but that Billet grill makes it look like a Ford product. Seems like a ricer thing to do to the GX. I should know I eat a lot of rice since Im asian.

I agree with Tony. It does not look good on the GX but that is my personal opinion.

My thoughts exactly. Every time I see trucks, esp. lifted really high with the sagging rear, there's a billet grill

Now, they're heading over to the sedans, esp. altimas.
Just looks cheesy, but all personal preference.

I think if the GX would have something where the slats aren't soooo close to each other like the
RX thundercloud or even the LS, then it would look much better.

I am not sure why would anyone change the grill on a Lexus, in my opinion, the Lexus grill is one of the best looking one on the market.
