I have the leds on my 2011. How often is this occurring? I'm going to be pissed if that happens to mine and Lexus doesn't do anything about it...

^ Very, very often. The consensus seems to be that the chrome ring is acting like a magnifying class and focusing the light on a certain area, causing it to bubble.

Lexus corporate is aware of the problem is working on a solution.

Congrats man... another sexy 2011. My only question is... how did you get it without the bumper being raped with license plate holes? My 2011 got man handled before I had a choice! You pick up your ride from Stevens Creek?
