Isn't that just an ordinary IS 250 valve bank cover?

I see it now, I forgot his name but it looks like he painted the whole engine cover black instead of having the 6 silver painted panels.

G30TOIS350,
Mine looks like yours with the exception of a slightly different design of the center piece withe the Lexus logo... possibly because I have an IS 250?

Haha, I wondered the same thing the first time I saw a 250 v-bank cover. I thought it was from another Lexus...

What's with that cover panel over the radiator?
It looks distorted.
