Default Cool Aftermarket Headlights

Got a is250 and wanted some aftermarket front headlights similar to how the 2is got em. Anyone know where I can buy them from? My headlights have the stupid condensation issue which is making the lights foggy.

i don't think there are aftermarket headlights for this car, you could have the headlight itself modified.. i honestly think the headlights look amazing, they don't need anything extra.. i see people do demon eyes or the bmw halos, looks pretty dumb to me tbh

the BEST would be Triple Beam:

the 3is is NOT at a price point where aftermarket parts are going to be cheap or even meet closely to Lexus/Toyota standards


fogging issues suck but Fixing OEM, for now, would be your best bet and can be DIY

I looked into this as well to facelift my 2014 to this front end. Over $2500 just for the set of triple beam headlamps, $400-$600 for OEM bumper, not to mention the additional wiring required for the headlamps, new liners etc... Oh and paint! (edit)

Not worth it in my opinion unless its a build/show vehicle that you plan on keeping forever. You can use those funds elsewhere on mods.

Just my 2 cents.

prices will come down since 2021 IS is different

CL Member specONE paid a pretty penny for being one of the first stateside to have those Triple Beams


glad i talked with him because the other thing about buying JDM version, the beam pattern is totally different since in Japan, they drive on the Right side vs. majority of countries being Left side driver


prices are coming down a bit but this one direct from Japan is still $550/shipped for 1! not including the parts you listed, plus additional parts

being super Unique like specONE, got to be a positive but hopefully prices will come down for the USD version


side note: cheapest USD Version Triple Beam i found on carpart was a grand, each
