Sitting in the sun to let the mold straighten out after 3 months in the crate.

Haven’t snapped the grill it yet. It takes like 23 screws (not included).

Unfortunately the side vents aren’t gloss paint matched to grill like OEM, will need your painter to take care of that.



In front of my 2014 conversion.


Washer holes, they provide a plug, but will be having mine filled.

Center is copy of the 2021 mold.


Grill painted gloss black.

Emblem is 2021 specific, older ones don’t match the holes. Size same but screw and tabs different.

Comes with all the factory mount tabs and holes. Much better than my 2014 conversion.

where did you buy this from / what’s the vendors name / link?

Hey I was wondering if you could show how you did it. I recently got the same bumper and I am really missing the foglights and been seeking ways how to make up for the missing foglight.

If I get this bumper, how much is a fair price to get it professionally painted for the bumper itself in lexus obsidian black color?

Would any body shop be able to do this or what should I look for in terms of helping me decide if they know what they are doing with lexus paint colors?

Price range for painting just the bumper? (They don’t need to paint the adjacent parts of my car do they? Or would they need to do that to “blend” the colors? I assume this would cost alot more money, just wondering if this is really necessary or if it’s just a way for them to make more money off of me)

Default Looking to do a 3is conversion on 2007 is350

I’ve been looking at the 3is conversion front bumper on the internet and it changes the car completely. I was looking at the bumper for sale on carid.com for a very good price but I called them and they said they don’t include the grill with it and it’s sold to them by the brand duraflex . I was wondering if I could buy a OEM 2014 lexus is350 f sport style grill , would it fit on to the 3is conversion bumper without any issue ? And also I really like the eye lids you have Color matched where we’re they purchased?

Late to the party but I think this mod would be really sweet. Has anyone here bought this upgrade?

i was looking at that exact same ebay listing. It says 96 units sold and almost gone. They are literally like 5 minutes away from where I live, I hope they could cut me a deal and let me pick it up in person.


anyone try this ebay seller? Are their products legit quality and fitment? Seems alot cheaper than the other option. The other options shipping is the same price as this whole front bumper.

are they the same model of bumper? Could you link which one is the one you got exactly?


did you have to pay a shipping price that was higher than the cost of the bumper itself?

Yes the black one and the silver one are the same bumper from Car-Act. They only have one type for the 4IS conversion which is on their website. You'll see the photos of my wife's car on there (license plate RRNRR). My blue one (not pictured above) also has a bumper from Car-Act which is the 3IS conversion. I have imported all 3 bumpers from them over the years and they've been great to deal with.

Shipping was about 75% of the price of the bumper from memory. Not cheap, but living on a small island I'm used to paying stupid shipping costs, so don't normally let that stop me from getting in the way if it's something I want.
