The first link: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...ep-thread.html

Thread gives a good idea with a list of tools he used also, along with part numbers. You either have these made from 2 bumpers (from a body shop/yourself) or buy a fiberglass one (less work but bumper is fiberglass). Which route are you leaning towards?

Are you planning to DIY or have a shop do it? If you don't have any body work experience I highly recommend having a professional take on the work. Grafti together two bumpers and ensuring precise fitment takes a ton of work and time. Parts and labor plus paint will probably run u $3000+. I've done two of these. First the 4GS Fsport bumper and second the same bumper but with the 3IS grill and flared the fog light area
. Another thread to look at to weigh out your options https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...r-threads.html
