Default F-Sport conversion

Hello CL. I recently bought an 06 IS250 and a buddy of mine had the 11-13 fsport front he wanted to get rid of from his 08. I traded fronts with him, oem headlights and all, but for some reason the fitment of the bumper is pretty crapy on mine. I. noticed afterwards that the headlights didn't have the plastic parts that the bumper attach to. Could this be the problem?

Where's your black plastic bracket on the fender. You should also have one there it looks like, and the part number is 5253653011.

Correct. I gave him my halogen lights, front bumper and $200 for his 11 HID lights, fogs, fogs, and grills.

You need the bumper supports (under the headlight and on the fender). You're missing all of it from what it looks like.

I noticed that my high beams don't work now and my blinkers blink fast. Any idea why? Is the wiring different between 06 and 11?
