this has got me wondering if the 2013 bumpers can fit the 2007 with a little cutting.

the IS guys are doing it with their older model IS and it looks great.

For some reason I am not a huge fan of Lexus new front designs. That being said, of those options I like the one with the fog light that central pine sells.

I tried calling Sam at the phone number he has listed but no answer or return phone call. Does anyone else know how to get a hold of him. I would like to get the fixer bumper conversion. Has anyone done this conversion ? If so do you have any pix. Thank you

These are nice but one thing bothers me, the lower leading edge of the headlights (where the "nike" swoosh begins) seems to disappear under the bumper cover on all these conversions except the Fixer. I wonder why that is.

I think it's because the front bumper is actually for a 2009-2012 ls460 and the headlights are a little different shape. Seems to be why there is a gap between the bottom of the headlight and bumper.
