Default 2014-2016 Front Bumper Conversion to 2017

Was looking to buy the 2021+ conversion for my 2014 model year but stumbled on this.

https://www.car-act.com/product/en/2...-Bodykits.html

Anyone purchase this? Or have any idea if it’s plug and play? I know other people have done this with OEM parts but I hear the wiring can be a nightmare.

There are a couple of existing threads about this kit, here:

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...y-car-act.html

I can merge this thread with the first one.

It’s a different one. 2014-2016 to 2017-2019. Not the 2021+ posted in this thread.

Sorry, I must have been looking at a different thread. I do think there is an existing user who did a full retrofit to OEM 2017-2020, but as stated - OEM. It's kinda hard not to do the whole shebang because of the headlights being totally different.

I will move these posts back to their own thread.

The link you provided in your 1st post links to a 2019 update, not the 2021 update.

Here's the 2021+ link.

Yes, they are trying to ask about 2017-2020. 2021 was my mistake. Sorry for the confusion.
