That's exactly what SFFD103 said. He meant that the car is an 08 with 09 tails and red outs on the outer part of the tail lights.

06-08 and 09+ rear tail lights are different shape. You can certainly mix-match but it won't look good because it won't line up.

As istundra said... The tail lights have a different shape so they won't line up (09+ sticks out further).

I was wondering the same thing as the OP, now I see what you're saying...the 09+ protrudes out further than the 06-08 so they wouldn't be flush with eachother.

Here are more PICS from someone in the UK (hope they dont mind me posting their pics) ;





Side view:



Im trying to find a 2011/12 Outer Set for around $200...please MSG me if you have a set or know where to get one for less than $250.. But for now i got the 2007 outers, i actually like the ROUNDED edges on the 07' style tho as the 2012 seems a bit "Boxy" or too square ? but i like the CLEAR indicator,,

I got the IDEA from THIS FORUM in the UK :

http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/for...er-and-lights/

they also have the newer inner piece, although up close they are not 100% flush but meh...

EDIT: pics are above, to save you from clicking that link.
