Hello Lexus enthusiasts! I'm considering upgrading the grille on my 2016 Lexus IS300 base model. Initially, I thought I'd have to replace the entire bumper, but I recently discovered an updated grille option. The supplier assured me it fits my base model after me providing a photo and VIN. I'd love to hear your thoughts – if it works, it could save me from replacing the entire bumper and just involve a grille change. I guess it will still look a bit different from F sport front end, but overall it looks better than what I have now.

As they say, beauty lies in the eye of the beholder. Some, including myself, are not fans of the F sport look.
Your car, your choice. Enjoy.

 

Interested to see how this goes, keep us updated. I've wanted to do the conversion in the past but I love the way both look.
