The build is going well. It should be done middle of the week as in next. I finally just ordered the F-Sport grill for the convertible from Sewell Lexus. My local dealer sold me an F-Sport grill for the sedan and when I returned it they told me that it was for the convertible. My thinking back at them is if it was the correct one and it fit and I said I would rather have that grill that the F-Sport convertible grill why would I return it?

Dumb asses!
