Default Swap for newer (3IS) front end?

I searched but couldn't find any posts on this, hoping to get some help. I have a 2011 IS250 with the ugly chrome trim in the grill, I was thinking about swapping the bumper and grill for the F sport one.
Anyone know if everything will line up or is it to much work due to fenders and hood not lined up.
thanks for any input !

What newer front end? The 3rd generation?

Or making yours look like an 2011-13 f sport?

I think you should have done some research before purchasing your car lol. It's going to run you around $1600-2000 to convert. Google "3is bumper conversion"
