Question 2009 Lexus IS X50 GFX Kit (Lip Kit)?

I've been looking around ebay and online for a 09' IS GFX kit for my IS 250 and have a really hard time finding any for the 09' model. I read somewhere on this IS forum that the 2009 IS front bumper is shaped differently than the 06-08' model bumper and will not fit due to the slight styling change.

Does anyone know where I can get one within a reasonable price range? I've seen 06-08' replica front lips go for $100 painted on ebay, so im aiming around that price.

-Thanks

wow that is either ridiculously over priced or it is the real thing and not a replica. anyone know where I can find the replica 09' Lip Kits? I cant afford over a $1000 lip kit that does not even include the installation. I really just want the front lip if anything to save money... its the only piece that actually makes the car look much better.

The reason the 06-08 lips kit are so cheap is because they're worth (less). Now that the 06-08 are no longer made, it makes sense the manufacturers are trying to liquidate their inventory. The dealers will no longer be able to sell it through the dealership on new cars and the only customers are of the previous year's model. It's a matter of supply and demand. The front lip for the 09's are somewhere around 450-600 just for the front lip. I'm still considering it.
